Bird Music

The topic of the day - birds, love and murders..

Seems that not only human Tour de France is a highly competitive event..

The Tour de France of international pigeon racing has been rocked by scandal and acrimony after 11 French birds were found dead on the eve of the competition in a suspected poisoning.  A further seven French pigeons are said to be seriously unwell prompting the Club des Internationaux Français (CIF) to urgently withdraw its 2,000 birds from the blue ribbon event citing concerns about safety and “fairness in this competition for all”.

Beware, some day they may take a revenge..

And they're not afraid of anything or ..anybody..

'They sentenced me to twenty years of boredom
For trying to change the system from within..'

THE REVELATION!!!

(must wait for just a moment)

The reason is here is minor but nonetheless revelation..

From the album:

Bandcamp - A Guide to the Birdsong of Mexico, Central America & the Caribbean.

Chirp to arms: musicians record album to help conserve endangered birds

'The musician and poet formerly named Kate Tempest has changed their name to Kae Tempest, and announced they are non-binary.'

Their new name, Kae derives from a jay bird.

Sometimes things are quite complicated..

But this doesn't change the fact that Kae Tempest are definitely bird performers

If you have any doubts about it - check out her shirt.

No. Non-exclusionary use. Birds jump. I've seen them. 🦜

In yogic flying technique, yogi must learn to jump like frog before flying like bird. Lots of samyama practice. 🌌

I know, I know I used to fly a lot when I was a kid, unfortunately after my weight had exceeded 75kg it became much more difficult.. Might go back to it cause nowadays it's very popular here in the Netherlands..

I started this thread with 3 versions of 'El cóndor pasa' so before...

..let's go back for a moment to this immortal bird music classic performed by one of the best bird vocalists, at least in this galaxy..

In the very first post I had stated that in many cases birdsong sounds like free jazz.

It seems I'm not the only one to think so

Lets call it... Sex, drugs and rock'n'roll.. aka ..birds, drugs and jazz..

"Singing for the fun of it produces an opioid in the birds’ brains, and the opioid makes the birds feel good. Humans are capable of producing their own endogenous opioids, too."

Yeah, seems that Charlie Parker hasn't been the only bird addicted to opioids!

The dawn chorus is created by birds chasing their next hit of opioid, according to a US biologist. Which explains why it’s so much like free-form jazz

I'm actually somehow sure that if scientists had a closer look at audiophiles' brains after listening sessions...
