Last week we talked about a couple of birds while looking at the real life version of Tweety and the Roadrunner.\u00a0 Today we are going to look at another bird but I don’t know any famous cartoon characters that were based off of the Nightingale.\u00a0 Don’t get me wrong, I know they have some songs named after them and even a sonnet but no cartoon character.\u00a0 Perhaps we should make one that can be friends with Tweety and help him defeat that mean ol’ puddy tat.\u00a0 If we are going to create a new cartoon character, I guess we should learn more about the real life subject, right?<\/p>\n

The Nightingale is a small bird that can be found in Europe and southwest Asia.\u00a0\u00a0 It is often mistaken for another famous bird, the European Robin, as they look awfully similar to the female Robins.\u00a0 The Nightingale tends to be larger than the Robin and is usually a boring old brown colour, except for the reddish tail.\u00a0 At least they have some colour to pretty them up.\u00a0 These particular birds are known to travel far distances each year to reach their breeding grounds or overwintering areas.\u00a0 They typically breed in the European and Asian forests while spending the chilly winter months in southern Africa.\u00a0 I bet they would have enough frequent flyer miles to migrate to North America.<\/p>\n

So what exactly is a Nightingale?\u00a0 Well obviously it is a bird but what does their name mean?\u00a0 Believe it or not these birds were apparently named over 1000 years ago.\u00a0 The term “Nightingale” simply means “night songstress”.\u00a0 I suppose we don’t have to be a genius to figure out why they called them that.\u00a0 Obviously, these birds love to sing at night.\u00a0 I personally prefer singing in the shower or the truck.\u00a0 It is believed that the single males still looking for their mate will sing throughout the night to attract that special partner.\u00a0\u00a0 So basically they are serenading the lovely females.\u00a0 Who would have known that Nightingale’s are so romantic.<\/p>\n

Don’t worry you get your chance to hear the beautiful song from the Nightingale by watching the short video clip below.\u00a0 Enjoy and have a great day!<\/p>\n
