chirps
Cricket leg music
Chirps are the short, high-pitched sounds made by small birds and insects.
Crickets chirp; sparrows chirp.
By extension, any brief, bright sound or remark: Her phone chirped with notifications.
To chirp is to make such sounds, or to speak in a cheerful, almost annoyingly upbeat way: He was chirping about his promotion all morning.
