A creepy cry that sounds like a human voice, velvet black wings, the image of tearing into dead flesh; crows are known across the world as an ill-omened bird that flies down with ill-luck.

A bird is known by its song and a man by his way of talking.

The crowing of a cock is the harbinger of dawn.

Above the music, I could hear her crying.

I used to listen to the calls of the wild birds in this forest.

Not a single sparrow was to be heard.

Seagulls cause all types of disturbances by cackling loudly, spreading guano, tearing up garbage bags and attacking to get food.

The bird's cry broke the silence of the woods.

When I heard the sound of sparrows chirping outside the window, I realised dawn had come.

Much better to be woken by the birds than by an alarm.

Are there birds with this kind of chirp in Australia too?

"I couldn't sleep last night because that cat wouldn't shut up with its meowing." "Same. I woke up, too." "And apparently my neighbor couldn't take it anymore either. When he yelled at the cat to shut up, it ran away, but I was so startled I couldn't go back to sleep."
