That's the thing about magic; you've got to know its still here, all around us, or it just stays invisible for you.
-Charles de Lint
This bird gets it name for its long human sounding whistles which it sings just before the break of dawn and can be heard much after the dusk too. It spends considerable amount of time hopping around the ground foraging amongst the wild grass and turning over leaves in search of food.
