2. It's been noisy as all get out
I love it. It's gotten so raucous at times, I've laughed out loud. Bird calls, zebras braying, and God knows what else. It makes me smile just to listen to it.

6. a couple of those birds have...
...real chilling calls, I think. One is sort of like fingernails on a chalkboard. But nothing compares to the horrible bone-chilling noises from yesterday. My lord! Like sounds from beyond the grave. Someone thought it might have been babboons. It sounded to me as if a lion were tearing an animal slowly apart and it was crying. Hideous.

8. Haven't heard that kind of noise
Unusual to be sure, but nothing quite that bizarre.

13. And again nothing but freaking birds.
I check in on this about 3 times a day. All I ever see is birds. I think the cam is in someones back yard in Tennessee.

14. I'm sorry you've missed the good times!
Giraffe feeding in the trees, monkeys, hyenas, elephants, zebra, babboons, wildebeest, Mr. & Mrs. Warthog, water buffalo, lots of gazelle-like creatures, a wild dog of some kind, and and and....and I've only been watching for about a week.

18. Yah, what is doing all that grunting?
It ain't the gazelles.

Sounds like John Belushi belching.

21. anyone listening this morning?
Goodness! Every few minutes there's a blast of something that sounds like a ferry boat or tugboat. Could it be an animal?
