plant store serenade

I was at the plant store just at closing time. A Brewer's Blackbird landed on an irrigation line and warbled. I opened a birding app on my phone and played played the 'conversational' chuk sound, which caught the bird's attention.

 

A sort of chat ensued--the bird singing, me playing a selection of Brewers Blackbird sounds from the app. A couple other blackbirds showed up before the clerk reminded me it was time to clear out.

 

Birds are cool.
