It's interesting the amount of noise we're surrounded by.  I have music
playing in the background (well, usually!) up here in the Computer Room;
fans blowing inside the computers to keep them cool.

The other day was outside and one bird was squawk-chirping constantly.  
Wasn't a bad sound, just constant and loud.  AFAIK we weren't invading 
his space as when we moved around he didn't calm down nor get agitated, 
in fact a few times he sort of joined us, sitting on the railing about 
five feet from us.

.... What do you call a very rude bird?
A mockingbird.
