Hahaha! I don’t think that’s true though. It’s rare, but I’m pretty sure I’ve seen hadedas make noise while walking.

They never make a sound on the ground!

Hmm, I’m not sure! I’m assuming it’s a flock but don’t quote me on that.

I’m loving it. A great conversation starter! Let me know if you run into trouble with iTunes, as I said it took a bit of jiggling to make it work…
