Stridulate
To stridulate is to produce a shrill, grating sound, as a cricket does, by rubbing together certain parts of the body; shrill.
In Isaiah, the Lord promises to repay the Assyrians for their arrogance. He uses the illustration of removing a nest, leaving no birds to stridulate their protest of the theft. (Isaiah 10:14)
And my hand reached to the riches of the peoples like a nest,
And as one gathers abandoned eggs, I gathered all the earth;
And there was not one that flapped its wing or opened its beak or chirped." (Isaiah 10:14, NASB)
