Monkeys used to do the same to me.

I have whipporwill's around here, I think they're cool. We don't have any monkeys so maybe the whipporwills scare off monkeys.
The worst ever is the kadi dids (sp)? Last year they came out of the ground and the sound was so loud it made the walls vibrate. Ever watch a horror movie or a sci-fi where the character is alone looking for people and that weird humming sound in the background? It sounded like that, almost drove me mad.

Originally posted by The PlumberYeah, I remember those 17 years cicadas from the previous cycle, when I was living in Cincinnati. There was a constant hummmmmm, and some days the roads where actually slick from squashed bugs.

Originally posted by elvendreamgirlHow was that movie? I read a book about Kinsey recently, not the one the movie is based on but the one by TC Boyle - made him (Kinsey, not the whipporwhill) seem both creepy and interesting.
I watched the movie "Kinsey" last night (excellent movie btw) and there was a scene where they were out in the woods and there was a whiporill!
