Re: The Loons on the Lake
Doves we have a plethora, of here where I live and they love to sing.
The sound they makes sounds a bit like
'a quarter to two, or some times look at me'
They are very friendly and bother no one.
But the best are the Green Parrots and Rainbow Lorikeets, come around every year and eat most of the apples on one of my fruit trees,
As to loons, we have far too many, most sit in parliament and pass the most stupid of laws.


Happy daze John in Oz.

Marian. Pity it isn't available now. You cup your hands together and blow through the thumbs and wiggle your left fingers. It sounds similar to the call of the Loon.
