Bird Music

[sphinxsix]

I met this handsome guy in one of Leiden's parks yesterday.. Love these red accents..

 

 

 

Some music.

A bit random this one, but a nice photograph of a Druid Great Bustard.....

Extinction Rebellion on COP26.

 

 

This Cosmo Sheldrake's piece of music was composed entirely out of endangered British birds birdsongs - a Dunnock, a Mistle thrush, a Nightingale, a Little Owl, a Ringouzel, a Short Eared Owl, a Barn Owl, a Skylark, a Britten, a Turtledove, a Marsh Warbler and a Teal.

 

 

But uber-extremism cannot be only about fight for the survival of birds.

It's gotta be also about fun!

Let's party like real comrades!

 

 

                               

 

 

BTW..

 

 

They say this pigeon deeply regretted later that expression of obedience..

Tom Waits - "Shiny Things"

 

The things a crow puts in his nest

they are always things he finds that shine best

somehow he'll find

a shiny dime

a silver twine

from a valentine

the crows all bring

them shiny things

Hope everyone remembers that every yodeling is bird music.

This one is an equivalent of thrash metal, one could say it's a thra(u)sh  yodel!

 

 

For those who don't know what thrash metal is..

 

 

..shame on you!!!

My first bike was named Pelican. 

Today I had a bike collision with a young girl who forced priority. I fell quite badly.

In addition a moment later I forgot to lock my bike and it had been stolen.

My leg hurts and and I have a slight concussion.

Probably that's why I accidentally asked google to search for 'T' instead of opening TheGuardian site.

Probably that's also why I quite enjoyed  the song which happened to be the first google result.

It's not about birds but beside that it's about many things that are topics on this subforum - about sex, weed, poo (anus) hence I didn't know where to post it and decided to post it here taking into account the fact that there is Pelican city in Alaska... (population of 88, down from 163 at the 2000 census)

Enjoy!

 

 

 

 

                                      Pelicans, definitely not peace loving birds..

 

                                             

 

                           For this their throats happen to be not deep enough, though.

How come no-one remembered about this one.???!!!

 

However..

A bloody optimal version of this one is performed:

1. A capella 

2. With the original bloody lyrics which actually don't include the word 'bloody'..

E.g.

 

 

Chickentown in cinema and on TV..

 

 

 

A cover version.

 

 

The very first British rapper, no-one can deny that!

 

 

And still a huge enemy of computers.

 

 

And finally, something for the Far Eastern poetic forms fans.

Maurice Louca - Benhayyi Al-Baghbaghan (Salute the Parrot)  ---the album, including the piece entitled "Salute the Parrot" starting at 9:10   ---  but the whole album is worth a listen,imo.

Laurie Anderson on birds..

 

 

..and on connection between Renaissance and Zen.

 

 

                                      

 

[sphinxsix]

And I've always thought birds tend to get naturally high (fusing, fusing!)
