Yer missin oot min

Last year Ah was walkin along the old Deeside railway path and heard a woodpecker tappin' awa .... couldna see it, and anyway, it was too far awa tae get a good look. A wee while later Ah heard the sound again, and it seemed closer.

Ah've got some hearin loss in ma left ear, so it's difficult tae pinpoint the direction o' maist sounds, so Ah jist stood still and looked around.... it was definitely close by.

Then Ah saw it! ... A starling ... about 12 feet awa ... mimicking the sound o' the woodpecker tappin. Amazin .. and funny at the same time
