According to the dictionary coo is the soft murmuring sound of pigeons or doves. The cooing of pigeons here in Nanjing is not a soft murmuring sound. I haven't seen the pigeons but every morning at the crack of dawn (which these days is about 5:00 a.m.) we hear them. It is a very annoying sound. Later in the afternoon they are at it again. Anyone who want to hear the sound can follow this link:

Would you believe that there are pigeon ringtones for cell phones. I guess you would wake up when you heard that ring on your cellphone.
This past week I only left the apartment to go to classes and once to go buy some Dr. Pepper. The balance of the time was spent on washing, ironing, marking papers and doing lesson plans. Probably it will be more of the same this coming week.

I found the birds rather annoying myself while in Nanjing. Also in Phoenix.

I called those guys the MC Hammer birds. Just google his song Ice Ice Baby and listen to the bass line and you'll know what I mean.
