I always get an annual pass to SeaWorld, because I love watching the incredible grace and power of the killer whales and dolphins, so I’ll put the links to two of my previous videos about them below, but, BUT!! . . . since I visit SeaWorld quite often, I have lots of opportunities to notice things going on at SeaWorld OTHER than the main attractions.
One of the things that always amuses me is that the local BIRDS have grown REALLY accustomed to the MUSIC used in the SeaWorld shows and to the timing of when the shows are going to END, so if you’re not “distracted” by watching the amazing whales and dolphins, you’ll notice if you look around you, that pigeons, seagulls, and various other types of birds start flying around and grouping together near the end of each show, as they hear the songs that are used to end the various shows. Some days it starts to look like you’re reliving Alfred Hitchcock’s “The Birds” movie! LOL, and it’s hilarious watchin’ the “stealth tactics” of various birds as they try to sneak up and eat some of the fish in the containers meant for the whales and dolphins!
So here’s a video about this airborne custodial service that’s an integral part of the SeaWorld ecosystem, as the birds do their part to get a meal AND to help save the planet, as they clean up some of the MESS that the masses of inconsiderate, littering humans always leave in their wake as they depart from the seating areas.
The song is “9 to 5” by an English singer known as “Willis”. I REALLY like this edgy, urban, soulful, ennui filled version of the song.
Willis is a talented, deep-voiced country/soul/blues/indie singer from London, England, who, in her words, “grew up on a diet of Elvis, Hollywood musicals, nursery rhymes and country music.” She began her career by singing traditional Irish folk songs, but then discovered 1970s Americana, Neil Young and The Band, and for six years she also worked in an eclectic London store, “Soul Jazz Records”, where she was introduced to the world of dance music and electronica. . . . the result is this great, unique, and eclectic sound that is heard in her version of “9 to 5”.
Here are two links to previous videos I’ve done about the killer whales, pilot whales and dolphins at SeaWorld, if you want to see more typical SeaWorld videos of mine:
