Animal Sounds

Elena has informed us that dogs say "woof woof" and cats say "meow" and birds say "step up."

"Step up"? Birds say "step up"? Well, they do here. My parents have a parrot, and this is one of her favourite things to say--She says it when she wants to step up onto someone's hand. It is interesting to me that this has coloured Elena's perception of the sounds that birds in general make.
