This is very interesting! I didn't know there could be up a 250 words translated by bird whistling! I really can't , but people do it perfectly! I hope they keep their language. This looks like a nice part of Turkey. I wouldn't be surprised they get snow in the winter time.

Interesting, I noted they also whistle names. I take it that they also actually speak the spoken word? The whistling seems to carry some distance as well.

I believe they had a show on PBS one time about them.
