Dear Ones,
Here are the second conversations in the “Chaparral Wildlife Chats” series. I spoke with these songbirds in the Santa Monica Mountains, California.
There is a Summary after the video …
VIDEO BY ALICE This is the second of several Chaparral Wildlife Chats. All the chats happened during the same hike.
SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
In Our Last Episode
Alice to Readers: That Rooster doesn’t want to say, “I love you. I love you.” [Trying for Rooster dialect …] “Ur Urov U.”
Hummingbird: Jesus! [i.e., the absurdity of this notion!] … Listen to this!
Rooster crows: I do not love!
Alice to Rooster (addressing the fine crowing sound and not the words): Very good! That’s better and better! Good work! Thank you! Very good! … [modeling the words] I LOVE you!
Songbird: Holy Jesus, she want’s the Rooster to say ‘I love you’.
Telepathically, a Human Child is saying to the Human Woman: Unbelievable situation, Momma. She wants the Rooster to say, ‘I love you’.
Alice to Human Child: Thank you, young one!
Alice to Readers: Young One over there … Young Human One … says she’ll work on that thing.
Alice to Rooster: I LOVE you … Good work!
Songbird: Over and over she says that thing.
Alice to Readers: You hear that? I think it’s catching on. ‘I love you’. And soon everybody will say that. ‘I love you.’ Good, good. ‘I love you’. Good work! ‘I love you. I love you’. Thank you. You’re doing great.
Wow. I’m bowled over. I am. Thank you.
2. Hens and Roosters and Songbirds and Owls
Well, on the telepathic plane I was just talking to the man over there the man with the little girl. Or maybe it was a Hen. Maybe the little girl taught the Hen and then the Hen’s trying to teach a Rooster.
You know it how it is with gender bias.The Roosters feel they ought not say ‘I love you’, and it takes a Hen to help them learn.
Anyway, I was talking to the man over there. He wanted to know what it was about the Nandays and the Owls, so I explained that those kinds of Birds …
[Hear the sound? I think this is the Songbird saying its name … “Weeeee! Weeeee! Weeeee!”]
Alice to Readers (continuing): … are afraid … terrified of the Owls. Even the Hawks are terrified of the Owls.
Songbird: “Weeeee! Weeeee! LISTEN to me!”
Alice to Readers (continuing): The Hawk told me that’s because in the middle of the night the Owls don’t make any sound at all; and they can fly right up to the nest. Those big Birds .. the Ravens and the Hawks … don’t leave the nest at night.
Alice to Readers (continuing): They don’t leave the trees. Then the Owl flies right up and steals their babies and flies off in the night.
You see, the Owl can see at night and the Ravens and Hawks can’t; they don’t even know it’s approaching because it makes no sounds at all. It sounds right spooky to me so it seems to me.
Songbird (three times): “LISTEN to her!” Then: “LISTEN.”
Alice to Readers (continuing): The Nandays won’t go in the Faerie Dell at night because there’s an Owl there. Owls stake out their trees just like Hawks and Ravens stake out a tree. None of those beings stakes out the same tree as another one of those beings … or is with one of its own kind of beings …
Songbird 1: Listen.
Songbird 2: What did you hear?
Songbird 1: She says Owls are fearrrred.
Songbird 2: What?
Songbird 1: She says they are really scaaaary. She’s scaaared.
Alice to Readers (continuing): … unless they’re paired. Whoa! What’s up with the Songbirds? …
Songbird 1: You don’t really know.
Alice to Songbird: What? Why don’t I know?
Songbird 1 to Alice: Because they aren’t scared.
Alice to Songbird 1: Well, It’s true I really don’t know.
Songbird 1 to Alice: That’s what I just said.
Alice to Songbird 1: That’s just what they told me.
Songbird 1 to Alice: Whyyyy did they say that?
Alice to Songbird 1: It’s not true?
Songbird 1 to Alice: Nooooo!
Alice to Songbird 1: Why is it not true?
Songbird 1 to Alice: It’s because she’s scaaaared.
Alice to Songbird 1: Oh, they very seldom do that?
Songbird 1 to Alice: Yepppp.
Alice to Songbird 1: Oh, good!
Songbird 1 to Alice: Yepppp.
Alice to Songbird 1: Oh, good! … because they’re scared of me. Owls are scaring me, for sure.
Songbird 1 to Alice: Peeeace.
Alice to Songbird 1: Are you sure?
[Songbird vocally repeats a word six times that comforts me. To me the word sounds like “Peace.”
Alice to Readers: In the background other Birds are talking. It’s hard to hear. It’s a little like being in a crowded lunchroom trying to figure out what is being said at just one table.
Songbird 1 to Alice: Peeeace. Peeeace.
Alice to Songbird 1: Nandays are very sensible Birds. I think they know [about Owls].
Songbird 1 to Alice: Peeeace.
Alice to Readers: They Songbirds are having a discussion now, but very quietly.
Songbird 1 to Alice: Peeeace.
Alice to Readers (continuing): I don’t think the camcorder will pick it up. They’re saying um maybe it is true I don’t know maybe maybe it is true. I don’t know. Maybe it is true.
In love, light and joy

INTRODUCTION
Dear Ones,
Here are the the first conversations in the “Chaparral Wildlife Chats” series. These magical encounters happened at the Faerie Dell in the Santa Monica Mountains, California.
There is a Summary after the video …
VIDEO BY ALICE
SUMMARY OF THE VIDEO
[Music]
Hello, Dear Ones, It’s Alice. I Am of the Stars.
Here I am at the Faerie Dell again for the first time since the person with the leaf blower came running down the hill and it looked like they were going to try to get into a fight with me. So we’ll see how it goes.
[There are Nanday parakeets talking.]
Nanday!
[I am walking along the trail.]
Nanday parakeets are talking.
I say: Nanday!
One of the Nandays says: She called us Nanday!
Another Nanday says: I KNOW that!
First Nanday: I said there was an Owl [in the Faerie Dell] and she says she doesn’t mind it!
Second Nanday: I know that TOO!
First Nanday: COVID-Stricken. #@!!! … COVID-Stricken, Goddamnit!
[Alice’s translation: Fear of death, or feeling of despair, or giving up and agreeing to die. I guess the Nandays have had enough of the human COVID mentality!]
First Nanday: Stop! Stop! Stop!
Alice to Readers: My gosh! That Owl must be one terrifying nighttime predator!
I made friends with some more Nandays just now. As to one Nanday in particular: I went into the Faerie Dell, and he couldn’t see me anymore, He got upset and he was saying: Where is Nanday?
And I said: Nanday … [You have to speak kind of quietly because Nandays have great hearing. You don’t want everyone to hear.]
And he said: There he is! Stop! Owl!
I said: I’m on the lookout for this terrorizing Owl!
Alice to Readers: I should tell you, I was walking down the path and talking to the Nandays … making friends with a new Nanday troupe …
[A big mistake is in the offing. Some big white Birds just heard the Nandays and thought they said my name is ‘COVID-Stricken’.]
… and I’ll be darned if two hiking ladies didn’t come down and pick up on it right away.
[A large, white Bird that is foraging on the forest floor says in a soft, chuckling voice to its siblings: “(She is) talking to a Parakeet.” Its siblings repeat this. A Rooster crows.]
The hikers started talking to them telepathically, and they knew just what they were saying. Isn’t it cool? Maybe one day the Nandays and other wonderful birds will be recognized for being people … along with human beings being people … and maybe we’ll all be very nice to them then.
Alice to Nanday: I LOVE you!
[The large white Bird says: Keet! Keet! Not a Turkey! A Guinea Fowl! … She says ‘I love you’! Goddammit! Is she COVID-Stricken, goddammit? Is she COVID-Stricken, dammit all!” I see it has picked up some swear words from the Nandays!]
Alice to Nanday: I LOVE you!
Alice to Readers: I trying that with the Rooster. The Rooster yesterday said ‘I love you’, but it was very domesticated.
We’ll see what happens.
Alice to Rooster: I LOVE you, Mr. Rooster!
[The large white Bird says with some exasperation: We are Keets, not Roosters! #%@#!]
Alice: I LOVE you.
Mother Keet: OKAY. STOP that!
Mother Keet says: “Here she comes!” Then it makes a loud call to warn its children that danger (meaning yours truly) is on the prowl.
Alice; The Keets like it. You guys do?
Rooster crows.
Alice to Readers: See the white bird? It says in a loud voice: Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh! Running, yes, I am running! … then quietly: Away! Yes, I am.
Alice to large white Bird (aka Mother Keet): Where did you go?
Mother Keet says in a soft voice: “Her will run away from you. Yes her will. Yes her will.”
Alice to Mother Keet: There you are!
Then there is another general alarm sound.
Mother Keet: For Pete’s sake, she has spotted me! For Pete’s sake, she has spotted me! I’ve got to get out of here right now!
[Four smaller white Birds are picking at the ground unconcernedly.]
Mother Keet: Oh Christ! My little chidren are not safe! No one will SAVE them!
Alice to Readers: Yikes. I never saw this before. Foraging Guinea Fowl, I think. I hope they’re friendly.
Mother Keet: Kids, get out of there! Kids, get out of there!
Alice to Young Keets: Are you guys friendly? Are you Turkeys?
Mother Keet: We’re not Turkeys! We’re Keets, goddammit!
Young Keet says softly: What is this all about? What does she mean, ‘We’re keets, not Turkeys?’
Mother Keet: Goddammit. She’s going to eat my children.
Alice to Young Keets: I LOVE you.
One Young Keet says softly: I love you too.
Alice to Young Keet: Thank you! (Says ‘I love you too!’)
Young Keet says bemusedly: “What does she say that for?” … and etc. along the same line.
Alice to Young Keets: I LOVE you!
Mother Keet: What does she SAY that for?
Alice to Young Keets: Thank you! I love you too!
Mother Keet: One of my children is coming over this way. Thank goodness it will be ok.
One of the Young Keets says: She says ‘I love you’ because she wants to make friends with us.
Mother Keet, bemusedly: That can’t be what it is about.
Alice, regarding Young Keet: What is that?
Young Keet: These are White African Guinea Fowl.
Alice to herself: Ok, I got it. These are White African Guinea Fowl, aka Guinea Keets … No, I think it’s a Turkey. Too big to be a Guinea Fowl. A young Turkey.
Alice to Young Keets: Turkey?
Another Young Keet: She’s repeating herself. She thinks we are not Guinea Fowl.
Young Keet to Alice: Guinea Keets. Not a Turkey.
Alice to Young Keet: Oh. Not a Turkey, yes?
Rooster crows: I believe that too!
Alice to Young Keets: I LOVE you.
Young Keet says, in a small voice: Love you too, COVID-Stricken!
{Alice; Akh, no!]
Another Young Keet says: Her name is COVID-Stricken?
Alice (using Keet way of talking): Uh OV u. [I love you.]
First Young Keet: Yes, yes.
First Young Keet: Her name is COVID-Stricken?
Second Young Keet: Yes, that’s what it is.
First Young Keet: I love you too, COVID-Stricken?
Second Young Keet: Yes, that’s what to say.
Young Keets are heading over towards the Mother Keet.
Hummingbird to Alice: S-s-s-s-stop that!
Alice to Hummingbird: Okay. Don’t talk to that being back there.
Mother Keet to Alice: Jesus Christ, leave my #@@! children alone!
Mother Keet instructing Young Keets: I love you too. Just say it. (etc.)
First Young Keet: Maybe we should try saying ‘COVID-Stricken’ again and again. Do you think that would make her very happy?
Second Young Keet: Yep. It really might.
[Alice: Awww!]
Alice (sees which Young Keet is talking): I got it. That one.
Mother Keet: Oh no! She’s identified my offspring.
Alice; Yep!
First Young Keet: I’m going to talk to her right now and see what happens. I’ll be repeating ‘COVID-Stricken’. Get ready. Here I go …
Second Young Keet: Don’t forget ‘I love you too’.
First Young Keet (repeating to itself): Please say, ‘I love you too’. ‘I love you too’.
Mother Keet [in the background]: Don’t hurt my offspring. Don’t hurt my offspring. Don’t hurt my offspring. (etc.)
First Young Keet: ‘COVID-Stricken Thing’ five or six times?
Second Young Keet: Ok, go ahead with that COVID-Stricken Thing.
Alice to herself: A lot of things are happening in a very delicate way.
Mother Keet: Yep, They are.
Alice to Young Keets; ‘Bye! See you later! I LOVE YOU
Hummingbird: Just say it! … PLEASE @#@! SAY it.
First Young Keet: COVID-Stricken, I really love you. I really do.
Second Young Keet: Try ‘COVID-Stricken, I really DO love you.’ Try that.
First Young Keet: Ok. I’ll try ‘COVID-Stricken, I really DO love you’ and then see what happens.
Mother Keet: THAT’S IT. Just SAY THE RIGHT THING. SAY THE RIGHT THING>
Alice to Young Keets: I LOVE you. I LOVE you.
Mother Keet: That’s enough, @#@! it!
Second Young Keet: Try five or six times.
First Young Keet: Ok, I’ll try five or six times. Watch me. Here I go five or six times.
Second Young Keet: Ok.
Alice to Mother Keet: ‘Bye, Momma. ‘Bye.
Alice to Readers: Well, Here we are.
First Young Keet: All right. Here we go. COVID-Stricken, I really DO love you. That’s one time. COVID-Stricken, I really DO love you. That’s two times. COVID-Stricken, I really DO love you. That’s three or four times. I forgot how many times.
Mother Keet: Forgot how many?
Hummingbird: Hee hee! That was three!
Mother Keet (in a hushed voice): I forgot how many too.
Hummingbird: It’s really all right.
Alice: ‘Bye, everybody. I LOVE you. I LOVE you.
Mother Keet (with babies gathered round her): Yep, yep, yep. THANK you very much. THANK you very much for not eating my children!
Mother Keet: Why is she saying that?
Alice to herself: I love you too? … One did say that.
Second Young Keet: What can I say? We did our best with that.
Alice to Young Keets: I LOVE you.
Hummingbird: It’s really ok.
Alice to Young Keets: I LOVE you.
Hummingbird: S-s-s-stop it.
Hummingbird to other Hummingbirds (whispering): I really hate to say this, but she just won’t stop saying that.
Alice to Readers: I’ll be. I was telepathing to myself: I really hate to say what’s going to be happening to those Turkeys later on.
Telepathically it sounded like there were a man, a woman, and a child in the house by the dry streambed. Somebody up there by the house … I don’t know if it is a Dog or a Human Being … I think it was the man of the house … said, ‘No, that’s not what’s going to happen to them. Thank goodness.
The Mother Keet is overjoyed to hear this. It says: Thank goodness they’re not going to be doing anything to us! … and etc. etc. from the Young Keets. I also am greatly relieved.
Alice to herself: They’re singing a song!
Mother Keet, overjoyed: #$@!! She says there is a man up there and she doesn’t know if it is a Man or a Dog. Isn’t that funny?
The Young Keets enthusiastically agree.
Alice to herself: Is she talking to you, I wonder?
Mother Keet: Don’t mention anything else.
Alice: Ok, not any more.
A Young Keet says: Listen here. Just LISTEN. They’re not going to KILL us!
Then there are questions from and proclamations of the good news by the other small Keets.
Alice to Readers: The baby Turkeys are saying to the mother …
Mother Keet: Not Turkeys, Keets! Please don’t say any more. They might decide to kill Turkeys and not us!
Alice to Readers, continued: I don’t know if you could tell. She said she loved me.
A Young Keet says: She said she loved me … I love you too!
The other Young Keets repeat: I love you too!
Mother Keet: YEAH, I love you too! I really love you too!
Alice to Keets: Yes I do!
Alice to Readers (misconstruing): Momma’s saying now she does not love the Turkeys.
Mother Keet to Alice: Please don’t say that we are Turkeys!
Mother Keet to Young Keets: I’m telling you, that Woman is not all that COVID-Stricken!
Alice to Readers: Well, I’m telling you! There’s a lot of species phobia amongst the Birds. Of course, they have good reasons for doing it.
Mother Keet: Yes, we do have those good reasons.
Alice to Readers: The moms are always trying to keep their babies safe; and they say, ‘Don’t talk to strange species’ … especially strange people.
Mother Keet: I’LL SAY! That’s what we say!
Alice to Readers: Can you hear it? That’s what they’re saying over and over again. It’s a definite lesson …
Hummingbird to Alice: Yes, it is!
Man from the house (?): I’ll say! That was really quite a confrontation.
Alice to Readers: I am definitely the odd man out, here! … and only a Human Being.
Look at this creek here! … What will I do? … Oh, look at this creek! Wow, here it is! It’s near the end of May, and the creek’s still flowing. It’s a bumper year for water, and a beautiful day.
Rooster crows: Yes, it is!
Alice to Readers: Absolutely beautiful day in the Faerie Dell.
it’s been a long time since I’ve seen any Faeries here.
We’ll have to wait for brighter day. They like to dance in the sunlight. I hear they like to dance in the Moonlight, but I’m not around here then.
Well that’s all for now from the Faerie Dell.
[Don’t stop viewing now. A Codicil is about to pop up.]
God bless you all,
And keep you safe,
And be with you
Through all your days.
In love, light and joy

NOTES: In this video, many Birds are talking at the same time. It was hard for me to hear what all the Birds were saying because of the clamor.
I had never spoken with Guinea Fowl before as well, and that made it harder to understand.
I just said, “… world class WordPress website …” and I heard something from the trees mocking me. It said, “She said world class WordPress website!”
And I said, “Who is that?”
And they said they’re the Woodpeckers.
Alice to Woodpeckers: You guys have a pretty good vocabulary. [This is telepathically.] Would you say something out loud?
Woodpeckers (telepathically): We don’t want to say anything out loud.
Hummingbird: Listen to that!
Alice to Woodpeckers: Why not?
Hummingbird: There is nothing there!
Alice to Woodpeckers: Why not? … I do too understand your telepathic language! … I can’t hear your other language! [Then I make a clucking sound to reassure them.]
Alice to Readers: They say, Yeah, they do do that. I’m not getting very far with the Woodpeckers today. We’ll see what else is going on.
Hummingbird to Alice (precursing): Please don’t say that.
Alice to people in house (if there are any there): If there are any people over there, I sure hope they don’t scare away the Faeries. This is awful! No Faeries! And Elves, and Gnomes … Would you please not scare them away? It has been a long time. They’re hiding. It has been years.
Man [telepathically]: We don’t do anything to frighten them away.
Alice to Readers: Somebody just said … a lady just said, “Thanks, Alice. We’ll put a treat out for them.
That would be the lady of the house that telepathically talked to me just now.
As you may know, that’s an old habit in the old country, and it seems to work very well indeed.
Hummingbird: Listen to this!
Rooster crows: Yes it will work!
. . . . .
Alice to Readers: That Rooster doesn’t want to say, “I love you. I love you.” [Trying for Rooster dialect …] “Ur Urov U.”
Hummingbird: Jesus! [i.e., the absurdity of this notion!] … Listen to this!
Rooster crows: I do not love!
Alice to Rooster (addressing the fine crowing sound and not the words): Very good! That’s better and better! Good work! Thank you! Very good! … [modeling the words] I LOVE you!
Songbird: Holy Jesus, she want’s the Rooster to say ‘I love you’.
Telepathically, a Human Child is saying to the Human Woman: Unbelievable situation, Momma. She wants the Rooster to say, ‘I love you’.
Alice to Human Child: Thank you, young one!
Alice to Readers: Young One over there … Young Human One … says she’ll work on that thing.
Alice to Rooster: I LOVE you … Good work!
Songbird: Over and over she says that thing.
Alice to Readers: You hear that? I think it’s catching on. ‘I love you’. And soon everybody will say that. ‘I love you.’ Good, good. ‘I love you’. Good work! ‘I love you. I love you’. Thank you. You’re doing great.
Wow. I’m bowled over. I am. Thank you.
. . . . .
Hummingbird: COVID-Stricken Not!
Alice to Readers: Life is full of unexpectability, isn’t it? You never know what’s coming next.
Alice: Who is that? What?!
Alice to Readers: Guinea Keets. Not ‘Keeties’ … Guinea Keets … Had enough? I have. This was a long video.
