Every morning for the past week, the most annoying bird has been hanging around in the tree outside our kitchen window. Normally, I love the little swallows outside and find their chirping enjoyable. But this bird is no swallow and I have no idea where the heck he came from, but I wish he would just go home!
It's hard to describe his call, but it reminds me of some kind of futuristic laser ray. A little like a "Star Wars-esque" light saber with a nuclear, hyper-active battery. I've never heard anything like it. The worst part is that he's EXTREMELY loud and constant. Every 5 seconds for the entire 20 minutes I'm eating my breakfast, making my lunch and getting my things together, this stupid bird just keeps on chirping. He's so annoying in fact, that even Ollie doesn't talk to him and Ollie talks to every bird that hangs out outside our kitchen window.
I didn't mind him so much when he arrived on Monday and I even found him a little funny on Tuesday. But by Wednesday, I was so exhausted that I just wanted the dumb thing to SHUT UP. Then for the past couple days, he's nearly driven me to the point of madness. So, yesterday I told myself that if he was back this morning, I'd take some video. Sure enough (to my dismay) he was back. It's so dark in the mornings that I haven't been able to see what he looks like, but you can hear for yourself how bizarre he is. The sound in the video is a little muffled and I'm afraid you may really miss out on just how high-pitched and punctuated he is. But, you definitely get the idea of why he's been driving me crazy.
