In-reply-to » People complain about the noise that the crows in our area make. Well … https://movq.de/v/7b8c06eb73/noise.ogg Notice anything?

@abucci@anthony.buc.ci It is. The general area where I live is not plagued by crows, it’s plaged by airplanes. The sound you’re hearing happens roughly every 2 minutes, 5am thru 11pm, when the wind is right (it often is in summer). They tried to extend this to 24/7 around 15 years ago, but failed, luckily.

Okay, I get it. The crows can be annoying (especially if you don’t like birds – I happen to love them, so I’m biased). They are noisy. But really … compared to all those jets, they’re irrelevant … I guess people simply think they have a better chance at fighting the birds than the planes. :/
