    I love the ornithology app so much! I recorded an oreole singing in the forest the other day, then the app identified it and gave me a list of recordings of oreole songs, so I was able to loudly play it on my phone and sure enough the oreole came over to investigate! (I felt a bit guilty for faking it out like that, so I stopped as soon as it came over.)

        Some day the orioles will discover the same technology. I’ll be walking through a forest and hear a really sexxed up voice saying “Hey big guy, why don’t you come up here and make me moan?”. So I’ll naturally climb up the tree to investigate and all I’ll see is an oriole excitedly staring at me and holding its phone using the Birdnell Humanology app. Only then will the birds have their revenge in full.
