HOOT HOOT

This is such a sad picture. Imagine the life that tree could have facilitated and harbored over its lifetime. We should all be replanting natives as fast as we possibly can.

Cool! What part did you learn??

Update: my hand hurts now, but in fact it is possible to lay down a pinky, then snap three times successively with ring, middle, then index, which makes three different snaps (descending in pitch).

I gotta say, surprised everyone is attributing the “snap” sound to hitting the pad of your thumb.

All y’all veteran snappers, try this. Lift up your pinky, then snap. Makes a much higher pitched snap. Now lift up your ring finger, then snap. No snap at all. Your pinky and ring finger make a sort of tube, and your thumb is striking one end of it (the crevice between thumb pad and ring finger tip) to make a tone. I’m even able to smack that spot with a finger on the OTHER hand and make a (quieter) snap.

Hope this helps.
