what sort of mouth noise repertoire do you have?

some of my more interesting ones include a loud pop noise i
can do without requiring any fingers (charming on elevators,
behind people) and sucking air into my teeth, a noise that
seems to irritate the living shit out of crows like nothing
else i can come up with

tried to learn click sounds sometime
found it rather hard to up the volume
id love to make it really pop!

its amazing what you can do and fun to fool around.
im no michael winslow,
but i whistle a lot in the car,
sometimes i try to mimic birds outside

crows are very talkative here these days,
wondering what they´re up to

there might be an owl or a hawk about. they'll swarm and
dogfight either those. otherwise, they just form a mesh
network and yell at each other about what tree they're
sitting on, like the chinese in that disputed ocean. someone
walking a dog will also set one off. they'll take turns, one
as a lookout up in a tree as the others forage on the
ground. they live for a few years in families and if you
stay on it you can get them to the point where the parents
are telling the children crows shut up and don't caw around
here or that annoying man will come out and make mouth
noises

noises that make dogs go apeshit, on the other hand -- too
easy. bordering on unkind

yeah, we have a few birds of prey around sometimes.
my wife once saw a common buzzard pick up a squealing
mouse.
sometimes when hes coming to sit in the big pine tree,
some crows or jackdaws surround him and harrass him from
safe distance and warn his prey.

but mostly there are three jackdaws (silverish neck) in the
lookout, of the lower trees, because there is a squirrel
feeder in the next yard.
i believe, when there is no squirrel around to go after,
after it picked up nuts to hide in the surrounding yards,
theyre sort of idle and get talkative.
who knows what they´re talking about...

then theres the three member magpie gang, which is mostly
hanging out on the roofs in a bigger distance and search for
leftovers when everyone else is gone or try to hustle the
squirrel to let go of any nuts. fittingly they make a lot of
ratatatat noises, as if they had a tommy gun. one of my
favourite sounds in the garden ^^

my all time faves are the two different gangs of finches.
they do fun stuff!

i used to rather like crows. you can caw back at them and
they'll actually pay you mind. seem rather confused,
amusingly, at times: ...caw? then you're all CAW, yes. then
they're all CAW back

but then i discovered their more bastardly site. you can
find youtube videos of them literally torturing cats, along
with them repeatedly using a bit of plastic soda bottle as a
makeshift sled to repeatedly inner tube down a snowy roof.
there are two sides to clever. that it was only in
retrospect that i realized the crows were deliberately
torturing me, knowing it drove me crazy that they'd land
next to my window and be loud as shit at 5am. it started off
as territorial and became an idle amusement of torturing me.
my roommate, a sensitive gun owner, offered me to buy me a
BB gun so i could shoot at them out the window. i declined,
citing fears of someone calling the cops (in fact, i read a
story in the news about that shit going down where i lived
just a few weeks ago -- lots of bored elderly out there,
even if it is quiet enough that you might think you
could...)

and so no, i'll find another solution. and it was
this

and moved away from there, no crow noise probs until... late
2020, moved here, and the crows are loud territorial shits
again.

but i'm a master at irritating them, now, and i'll step
outside and literally see them all take off and fly away,
like: ehhh, shit, him again

never raised my voice, thrown shit at them, nothing. just
annoying mouth noises timed to trip them up in their own
riddims and they fucking hate it cannot describe how
satisfying.
