The thought manifests as the word; The word manifests as the deed; The deed develops into habit; And habit hardens into character. So watch the thought and its ways with care, And let it spring from love Born out of concern for all beings.

The tooky tooky bird in the tree outside my window just finished giving me a 20 minute concert. They are brown, a little larger than a robin, with black head and yellow beak. They don't seem to try emulating other birds or sounds but work on this weird repetoir from tiny squeaks in rising and falling scales, raucous GACK sounds, and a whole lot more. And of course, the classic tooky tooky.
