And birds could be considered along that line, too. This was, I can't, by verbatim, sort of recite the research. I mentioned this on the net. It's probably about a year back, maybe even longer. Birds, so I have to paraphrase this a little bit here. But birds, they, again, for a very long time, they thought chirping of birds, a chirp with maybe an alarm to communicate a danger or to attract a mate. But now they know that birds, the chirping, has far more, the chirping and cheeps and things like that, birds make, have far deeper meaning than just simply a chirp as an alarm. There's more behind it than that. And they've also discovered that chirps and cheeps and all the other noises that birds make, even within the same species, they have almost like a dialect outside those same species in another area, another region. They have a dialect. They have a dialect in those chirps and squeals and everything else they're making. So there's definitely a language of some sort happening there, too. This is repeater station kilo kilo 7, November, Quebec, November, all star node 6222, located in Shelton, Washington. And in talking about animal intelligence, I'll talk a little bit more about that in a moment or two. I think that's probably about the last of my topics for tonight, about BC wolves and something they've discovered there, or at least they think they've discovered there. And on the science net, from time to time, we'll be talking about animal intelligence and some of the characteristics that we've used to measure what differentiates us from animals. And that gap, it seems to be getting more narrow as time goes on. I'll talk about that in a minute.
