Do You Think Animals Worry About Things?

@SW-User I wonder how they got separated from them. When birds fly they will make a special type of call to their mates that I call “I’m over here”, that’s how they keep in touch with each other and don’t get lost while flying. I’ve seen them doing it with each other when I’d pick up one cage and move it to the sun room, the oldest female would start up. What was really funny was one day I had them on the back porch and they were watching me rake the leaves in the yard, every time I would go around the corner that oldest bird would do that call for me until I got back around the corner within her line of sight. I guess she didn’t want me to get lost from her.

@cherokeepatti I'm not sure. I am surrounded by forests and there are all sorts of birds around me, including birds of prey. Once in a while there is a distress call sound from a bird that has gone on for long.

@SW-User Sometimes mother birds will pretend to be crippled to lead anyone away from the area of her nest with fledglings inside. I had one do that one time at a rural cemetery that rarely had visitors. The bird was a scissor-tail flycatcher pretending to have a broken wing and kind of running on the ground. I could tell it was playing the game to get me away from the tree she had her nest in.

@cherokeepatti That I did not know. But another sign of a bird worrying.
