They technically don’t exist in Minnesota. Except the ones we see now and then.

Goldens, by the way have a less squeeky voice.The ones from Middle Earth, no doubt, would presumably have had a syrinx the size of Souzaphones.
Of course the other great approximation that is helpfull when trying to point one out in a tree somewhere is to “look for the golf ball where I’m pointing”.
