Well, now I remember the question!  Here's the rest of this conversation:

Q:  There's a bird native to Brazil that sounds just that the bird sounds
at the end of "Walk Straight Down The Middle".  Is that were they came
from?
Kate says that it wasn't, that she just made it up while sitting around
one day, but that others said it sounded like a peacock.  Then she said:
K: Let's see if I can do it right now.

And she did!  She made the sound just like in the song!  Much applause
followed.
