BellaOnline Forums Hobbies and Crafts Birding Uncany Ability

My wife say that I have an uncany ability to "talk" the the critters.. Birds included.. I chirp and whistle to them..and they do come close.. the squirrels too.. Most critters do.. Often I'll just sit outside on nice days or evenings watch and feed the birds and squirrels passing the time. They tend to come close, robins, sparrows, tit mouse, chickadees, wood thrush, Gold finches, even a few I can't place yet.. or at least they don't stay around long enough for me to get a good look. I don't consider myself to be a shaman.. but I'd like to be like that fellow in Japan that can summon Birds at his beckoning..
