[QUOTE="ronny, post: 3034541, member: 8853"] I observed that same situation a few years back at the Madill Girl's Home livestock barn. Little guy kept flying high trying to find a way out. After a few hours, he finally lost enough altitude due to being so tired that he found the barn door. Had one fly in today; wasn't one of the regulars. Probably she was just resting on her way south. Saw some interesting things with them this year. When they fuss at each other, it's a very high-pitched chirping. One day when I was working too close to the feeder, the male bird started raking me over the coals. He literally sounded like an angry squirrel, except his chittering was very muted. First time I had ever heard that. Also, saw the same guy picking gnats out of the air and eating them. They're fun little critters. [/QUOTE]
