magpie · Aug 21, 12:58 pm
I heard great chattering from a bird today. It was out front somewhere and I couldn’t see it but I think it was a magpie (there are plenty of them round our way). The strangest thing about it was that it was very close to words. I could just imagine it making sense of a sentence. Indeed the rhythm and cadence of it all was akin to it giving information – if only I could have understood the language I might have learned something valuable today!
