Hey, Maxie baby, you need to chill out, man! You have a big problem with sound.
A lot of us think those calls are great. Learn to live with your environment (so
say all the crows, peewees, plovers, koels and Brown Honeyeaters out here at
Roma).
I think you need some therapy, perhaps a de-sensitization course. I know the
very thing - I've hand-raised a couple of Torresian Crow nestlings, and believe
me Max, once you have done that, no bird sound, not even screaming peacocks, can
ever bother you again!
