The shoebill is primarily a silent bird, but one of the few noises it makes is a machine gun-like bill-clattering, generally used by members of a nesting pair to communicate with each other and their nestlings.  Shoebills may also utter croaking sounds, cow-like moos, whines, and nestlings may beg for food with hiccups.

i love animals and i have nothing against this bird but also the size of it… the way it moves? the way it gazes at the camera/the person holding the camera? this creature is so singularly unsettling to me and i would really die of fright if it turned towards me to make that noise

this is really the worst thing i’ve ever seen

this bird houses a human soul
