Nothing to do with 78s per se-- although perhaps an early version of 
this was on a 78? I take care of an adult with autism (just 
celebrated my 25th anniversary as his advocate) and he used to love 
Sam Hinton's Barnyard Song ("Oh I had a bird, and the bird pleased 
me, and I set my bird under yonder tree..." and Hinton proceeds to do 
the animal noises of a subsequent number of animals, always finishing 
with the bird a whistling sound...)
