If I were a filmmaker, I’d be so tempted to troll the ornithologists by putting in, say, a faint but distinctly recognisable kookaburra call in a scene in the Peloponnesian Wars or something. And add another layer of trolling by having the scene filmed somewhere where there are no kookaburras.

  If feral Australian giggle chickens were as common worldwide as, say, feral lorikeets, you’d know about it.

They already do this by putting the sound of screaming piha in any movie placed in a rainforest

For anyone wondering, the Kookaburra call sounds like Mel Blanc doing a woody woodpecker laugh

Or just a guy sitting in a tree playing a flute.
