They usually like short words filed with vowels: "tern," "erne," "aerie," "sora," and, of course, "ani." I remember, for some time after I saw my first ani at Loxahatchee NWR, trying to tell people of my pleasure in finally seeing this cross-word puzzle bird. After meeting a lot of blank stares, I realize, now, that I should have called you.
