The kids of my building are positively evil.
They imitate the cuckoo every time it opens its mouth to coo(?) or cuckoo(??),whatever the verb-form is.They do it pretty well too.Convincingly enough for the cuckoo to fly into a rage Every Single Time.It answers at a higher volume,and the kid answers back,and this strange exchange goes on,with bird and mini-man locked in argument with mounting volume,till,I kid you not,the poor bird loses steam and fairly starts sputtering with rage.Ask Ma,if you don't believe me.This really happens.
I want to report the kids to animal rights activists.Frankly,waking up torn between hilarity and outrage and fairly choking with badly-timed laughter is getting to be a bore.
