[Courses] [python] Lesson 9: More extras (requested topics)

[Leslie]

Akkana,
	This truly IS fun because I was wanting to add bird songs but didn't
know where to start! So it's great to see your program and esp. the
reference to Stokes.
	I really appreciate your enthusiasm and feedback and -- hey, use my
code (such as it is) anytime.  :)
