Taken on Tick.

A missionary in Africa was astonished while walking in a wood to hear a clock strike, though no h man habitation was within miles of the place. He discovered that the noise proceeded from a bird known as the clock bird and called by the Spanish the Campanero. The bird gives a note every few minutes which is identical with the sound of a striking clock.— Living Church.
