Perkutut mania!

Pictured above is a perkutut, a turtle dove popularly raised in Indonesia for its singing capability. Supposedly these birds came from India with the traders and the custom spread to other South-East Asian countries like Thailand. These competitions or "lomba" get pretty serious apparently. Wild stuff. Just if you're curious here is a link to a recording of one of these buggers:

Perkutut Song

Imagine waking up to that everyday!
