Good Morning.

I am in northern Wisconsin on Newman Lake where my family has a cabin. You can see some of the birds of the lake at this lake http://birdfreak.com/northwoods-birding-the-lakes/.

The most famous bird of the area is called the loon, only here in the Americas. You can hear what a loon sounds like at http://blog.syracuse.com/indepth/2008/07/audio_hear_the_calls_of_the_co.html.

I am interested in hearing from you. Can someone be brave enough to post a message? I think jumping right into a leadership of management conversation might be a bit too much. SO.....Why don't you tell me something about the birds or forests of Bosnia? I am not interested in your English skills, just give it a try. This could be a good practice, and maybe once you get comfortable in English we can try to work on my Bosnian!

Have a good day. EM

  1. Hello

    Well here in Zenica, where I live, the most common birds you can see are Rock Pigeon and sweet little House Sparrow. In the last few years on the river called Bosnia that goes right through the city, you can also see the Mallards, which is really nice. I think they stay here during the winter too.

    When I saw this question about forest the first thing that crossed my mind is Perucica, the primeval forest, one of the rare ones here in Europe.
    I wanted to post a link too, but I can't paste it...

    Hopefully my other classmates will manage to do that, or write about other birds that live here.

  2. Mirza, thank you for the information. Did you listen to the loon sounds? They have a very distinctive cry.

    Thank you for being the first to post something. I appreciate your leadership in this. EM

  3. I've just listened to the sounds and while I was listening to it my little bird - common pet parakeet reacted to its cry. I've also read the explanations bellow, and I found it very interesting how such a little and simple animal like loon has so many different sounds/ways of communication with other birds and among their own species.

    You're welcome,
    Mirza Mahic

  4. hm... I would like to say sometinhg :)

    It's nice from you elle that you are trying to develop this conversation between Chicago and Bosnia specialy on these topics. One of the main reasons that there is a small number of responses is that we all study for our exams. For example, we have our exam from management in Tuesday. But I hope that we will have more time after our exams to participate in this conversation.

    And while exams finish I hope that you'll be happy to have conversation with few of us like me and mirza.
