Birds on the Wires

My late husband, a musician, used to often whistle the tune that the birds on the wire represented as we drove by. He was one of those musicians who could look at a music staff and automatically know exactly what it would sound like. Fun idea! And if as we were passing by they moved and resettled, he would say, "ah, now it's a G minor chord" or whatever.

Neat. However, aren't birds usually portrayed with flutes? :P

As people have already noted, especially on the Fark thread about this video, this concept is several years old

"Birds: Alone in his loft, a composer-played by real-life composer, Walter Boudreau-is struggling with some serious writer's block as he works at his piano. After what appears to be several hours of hard effort, he is rewarded with inspiration from a most unlikely source, the pigeons outside his window. The conclusion: Be More inspired."

I love it. Such a gorgeous video too!
