I have been used to hearing roosters "cock-a-doodle-do-ing" in Maui every morning, although the sound is quite far and faint. Here it is now the season of the crows and their chirp is a loud "caw-caw" (a cross between a goose's "honk" and a duck's "quack"). The past couple of mornings I was awakened by the sound but this morning they "caw-ed" even louder than before. It's really interesting how many crows are here in the city. (Peter will comment about this later.)
