The Uxi Duxi is closing in seconds...
I promise more music made using the cries of herons as samples, soon.
There is a certain frequency to the cries of the bird; this would allow the sound to carry a certain distance, I assume, to the nearest other heron, I am also guessing.
The black caped night heron would emit a loud "Waauuk!!" sound upon taking flight.
I think this is to frighten any flying thing that might be airborne to get out of its way, so as to avert "bird strikes;" kind of like a horn. How else to explain it?
The above idea came from the fact that Zen, my friend, whom I recently saw for the first time in almost a year, does a "podcast" and, I see him sitting at one of the tables outside the place, squawking into the screen of his tablet upon which it seems is a mirror-like image of his own face.
But, he seems to do it in "real time" and people actually comment and these appear in real time and conversations are held, people ask questions and he answers them and he is usually drinking beer and kratom as he does this.
My first topic has to do with people who smoke half a cigarette and then, after dropping the remaining tobacco on the sidewalk, make sure it is out by grinding the thing so as to rend open the paper and render the cigarette un-smokable by any skeezer who might come along and have his hopes of getting a free half a cigarette dashed by the brutal realization that there are people cruel enough to do such a thing.
Perhaps the people have 11 diseases and are doing a public service by destroying the cigarettes. No, if that were the case, they would crush the butts in their hands and throw them deep into a trash can, insuring public safety.
No, they are left out there so as to entice a skeezer from a distance (from whence the term "snipe" comes from with regard to long distance targeting) into thinking he has scored himself a half a cigarette and then to communicate to the skeezer that whomever left it there has no mercy, nor love in his heart, for the skeezer.
I almost don't blame them...

I think I know what this is. This is called "Streaming", you "stream" the video, so people are interacting with you in real-time.
It requires good internet, not San Jose California internet, so it's not something I could consider.
This is too bad, because it seems to be popular and lucrative. There are ways to "monetize" your "stream" to make people pay small amounts of money, and these can add up quite nicely.
In fact, when I think about it, I'm living in "Silicon Valley", a place literally millions of people are interested in, but because the internet access for the 99% is so poor here, there's just nothing like the kind of videos Cory Gil-Shuster does about Israel, for instance. There just isn't the internet access, no one has time for 1-1.5 hours per MINUTE of video uploaded, which is how it is here.
But yeah, "streaming" is what your friend is doing.
