Songbird Competition
Narathiwat Province, Thailand
In every year competitions take place in Thailand with more than
thousand songbirds. The birds sit in cages made from bamboo or sometimes
in extra designed small pavilions. These are mounted high up using poles
and ropes.
For the audition the cages are let down and then the jury judges the
modulation of the voices, the melodic contour and the constancy of the
singing of the birds. The owner of the winning bird receives a prize
money.
disgusting!
Sorry yet no sound recording, it's a pity.
