sometimes i think about the recording of the mating song from a bird species that was driven extinct, the bird was the last of its species, singing for a mate that would never come

and it's a beautiful call too, alas, none of the species were ever found after the 80s
@agatha@a.bloodyno.se the gaps in his song are for a female to fill in her part of the duet. But, he's waiting for a response he'll never get. The song of the kaua'i o'o has haunted me since I first heard it, it's such a haunting reminder of how fragile nature is, and of how much of a tragedy the loss of even a single species is
