17 - Wild Sing
That’s what it’s all about isn’t it? The guys trying to impress the girls, the girls trying to pretend they don’t like it so that the guys will try harder, the guys getting so frustrated that they resent the girls who finally do accept them. Am I right or am I right? Ah, love.
Hey kids! Thanks to the amazing Shrillbee Audio System - Listen to todays Boids comic! Yes, thanks to the miracle of technology we can listen to this comic as it happened! Here, then, are Boid, Harmon, and Nelson, in their own words…

Hopefully Harmon can sing better than Nelson or maybe Boid will have something in his body that can sing for them. Thant would be interesting.
Nice idea about the sound bar. Keep up the good work.

the sound bar was cute. how did you do that? did you record birds or do you have a special program?

Cristina, I found a great website - http://www.whatbird.com/ and searched for sparrows. They have recordings of hundreds of bird songs available. Then I used Aduio Hijack to capture the sparrow songs and Audacity to edit and mix them together. The first bird sounded mechanical to me, so I used him for Boid’s voice. Glad you liked it!
