Chicka-dee-dee-dee

There is an insanely loud chickadee trumpeting his mating call in our backyard (at least I'm assuming he's in our backyard given how clearly I can hear him.)

Normally, I enjoy the various and varied birdsong we get (I attribute it mostly to the fact that we have feeders out and so the birds congregate in the nearby to get at our seed). But man, I'm ready to sign this guy up for tinder if it'll get him to stop already.

Maybe I'm just in a grumpy mood. It's entirely possible.

  1. Chickadees, so I am told, are quite intelligent and easily tamed. If you pitch a contract, he might listen!

  2. I went out and had a little conversation with him, his particular sound the only one of the many we hear that I can actually whistle relatively well. After a little back and forth, he called it good. Perhaps he was just lonely.
