Yesterday, I heard a tweeting sound. I thought, "Is Collette playing with one of her bird cat toys?" Then, I thought, "No, I don't think that's it. Did I leave music playing that has bird sounds in it?" That wasn't the case, either. Only then did I realize, "There's an actual bird tweeting outside the window."
Apparently, I've gotten out of the habit of recognizing legitimate birdsong.
