David Abram makes very good points, and I would have to say I agree with most things he says. He proves to show that animals and no better than humans, and humans are really no better than animals. We each have different ways of communicating in which neither humans or birds understand each other but each has their own language. Just because we do not understand what a bird could possibly be saying to one another does not make it any less of importance. Just because a bird cannot understand our conversations with one another, does not mean our conversations are not important. Birds have different ways of communicating in which we talked about today which are: Bird's song, "Clucking" their information to one another, for instance if they are trying to stick together, they have "location calls". Lastly, they have an "alarm call" which is more of a squawking sound. When talking about a birds squawking sound, a human could relate to someone yelling or hollering because this could be what we would say is our "alarm call". Once again, humans are no better than animals, nor are animals better than humans we just have different languages.
