Talking To The Birds

We have 2 bird houses on our property that have a family of barn swallows living in them. The babies have hatched in one house and the others will be any day now.

These are such interesting creatures. Both parents care for the young and are always within sight. I often sit on my patio and watch them coming and going, listening to their beautiful songs.

This evening I had the urge to talk to this one particular bird that was sitting on the wire above me and lo and behold, he/she responded! I continued making this noise with my lips and the next thing I knew, the bird from the other house joined in! You can see the second bird on the wire in the distance.

I took this video because no one would believe me if I told them I could talk to the birds! Here’s proof!
