Sure says something when you ask someone what the general demeanour and personality of the bird they’re rehoming is and all you get back is “they’re loud”
Ty so much for that very helpful totally answered my question
I have read too much fan fiction where the author just does not know the difference.
"She was balling her eyes out" is a very gruesome statement to have apply to a 4 y/o child over a dropped sandwich or ice cream cone

Bird identification is so fucked up in a really fun way you can’t understand until you get into it. For example, there is a type of goose called the cackling goose that looks exactly like a Canada goose except smaller and “cuter”. The cackling goose is way, way, more rare in most places than its relatively common cousin, so it’s on tons of birders life lists. Everyone wants to see a cackling (look in any bird ID group to see lots of hopeful people posting petite Canada geese). The two species regularly commingle, so sometimes a flock of those common parking lot birds will have the equivalent of a Pokémon shiny just hanging out in the middle of them.
How ridiculous and fun is that? I can never look at a big group of Canada geese without scrutinizing their ranks for an adorable little extremely rare cutie pie cackling goose. It reminds me a bit of mushroom harvesting minus the risk of death if you get it wrong
