* there are Birds that sound like Peepers - even including Starlings
imitating them before the first Peepers call. One suggestion is that
in the earliest calling Peepers often give their trilled call, rather
than standard peeps.

"[The] two fundamental steps of scientific thought - the conjecture
and refutation of Popper - have little place in the usual conception
of intelligence. If something is to be dismissed as inadequate, it is
surely not Darwin [, whose] works manifest the activity of a mind
seeking for wisdom, a value which conventional philosophy has largely
abandoned." Ghiselen, 1969. Triumph of the Darwinian Method, p 237.
