[The Velveteen Ocelot]

1. Every time I hear the Hebrides Overture I think of an old cartoon,

maybe a Looney Toons thing, that had some kind of a bird walking and hopping along to that music. I must have seen it when I was a kid, back when they showed cartoons before the feature movie in theaters (that sure dates me). Ever since, that bird has been stuck in my head and I see it every time I hear the music.

2. Funny!

I watch these REAL birds! http://explore.org/live-cams/player/osprey-nest Not much 'hopping,' but the 'kid' tests her wings!
