Thats unmistakably kookaburra's singing. It isnt at all like the sound of a bird. I believe if the bird lived in Indonesia, it'd be surely mistified :D Hahahaha. Maybe. I don't see it often, though. I see crows more often. Although I'm starting to think it's not crow but rather magpie... hm... I

Back then when I lived in Taringa, Q, the bird always sang in the morning. Taringa is still surrounded by many trees. Thats why the bird can still easily be spotted there. The bird's singing sounds like an eerie laugh. Definitely not a sound you want hear when you are alone I think you just descr

Talking about australian wildlife, you should hear how the kookaburras (im not sure if they are native to Australia or not) sing :D Yeah? What does it sound like? I've never seen one before, or at least I don't think I have. My friend did when she was visiting the wildlife park because I saw t

Though I'm sure there still might be people who drop the letter h in historic (-istoric), but isn't it' getting more and more unpopular since the 19th century? IMO it is more common to pronounce the word with spoken h nowadays. My own rule of thumb is that if I have to read the letter h when the

Wogh, quite intense and a bit worrying there :takut better be prepared for the worst then. . How many days that it was predicted for the oncoming weather issues ? Will it be couple days without electronic devices ? Very different here, I don't think people in Indonesia really care about weath

Hey people. How's it going? I was supposed to go out to a night market today, but the police force has just issued a severe weather warning, basically telling everyone to go home and stay put to avoid possible flash flooding. Sigh. It hasn't rained yet, so I shall see what happens next. In case it

I didn't mishear him; I heard him quite clearly. I think that he's not mistaken because aside from his holding a PhD in engineering, he also obtained a minor degree in English literature. Also I have some screen captures which prove that he knows what he says. *but still, I need some explanatio

hello there ........ i am from UK

As far as I know the slang is chiefly used in the US to express "a thousand Dollars". I'm not sure if the brits use it widely to say "a thousand (GBP/Quid)" I may be wrong, though. Not sure either. It's used quite a lot here, so I thought the Brits use it. Then again we use a

Found it a bit strange that you say "grand" instead of a thousand since you are from England. Don't they use grand over there? I didn't know.

OK how tall are those buildings on your location? In downtown LA, even if the sun was right in the top vertical of yours, still have shades. Because them skyscrapers as well as 4 layers of freeway pass crisscrossing the whole segments. Besides, inside any public transportation in LA by law, must

What..? Summer have just barely past in Cali. T'was 102F-106F but inside any building or cars it's just 62F. Also, since our downtown has many high rise buildings so pretty much shades will be provided if I wanted to walk outside. I didn't say it was you. I was expressing what I had in mind. Sho

Hi there. So you have a good sense of humour. Tell us a joke, cause I love British humour. A grand??? I sure hope you don't mean in cash in your wallet.

So, I was right. You are in the land of Oz. :) Summer can be a little interesting. At least some chicks are dressed minimum. It's not interesting for me. The heat is crazy. You can't go outside for long without getting burned, and you can probably cook eggs on the pavement. You speak as if I

Just guessing that you might be somewhere down south, either Oz or Kiwi land. Since northern hemisphere is in the fall season. I am well aware of the season difference. That is also partly the reason why the term Christmas in July is popular. Honestly though, I'm not looking forward to summer.
