Chirp chirp
Thats what wakes me up every morning, its not a new alarm tone but a pair of birds doing their rounds in the trees and open spaces just outside my building. They have an amazing sense of punctuality, their natural clock never fails them. Dont know their species-the two of them-rusty brown to black in color-big statured-prefers to walk around more than fly-with their inimitable chirp. One could mistake the chirp as that of a dove's, but they are far louder. On weekends when I want to sleep late and the birdies set off their alarm i frown-but as my mom rightly says-am lucky to hear them "live"-lying in bed-instead of their tones being replicated in ringtones or alarm tones of mobile phones.
