Chuckling Ravens


In a recent thread, someone with a gift of the language, described one of the sounds that ravens will make as "chuckling".

Brilliant!!!;D

I have heard this many times but had a hard time finding a good description for this sound.

Now....if I could just fix that hole in the soffet and get the starlings out of the attic :biggrin:

Unidentified bird call


Yesterday I kept hearing a bird chirping all day and night. Walked around the house and yard twice and couldn't find where it was coming from. Today I went into my guest house to get something and the chirping got louder. Sure enough it was the low battery warning on a smoke detector making the chirping sound. All that chirps does not have feathers :lol:

How Punny :)


The ravens that visit us do not "chuckle"; in fact they don't make any noise at all.

Perhaps they are too busy raiding the bird nests on our cliff and eating their fill of the eggs.
