We have made high resolution observations of the Sun in which we identifyindividual sunquakes and see power from these seismic events being pumped intothe resonant modes of vibration of the Sun. A typical event lasts about five minutes. We report the physical propertiesof the events and relate them to theories of the excitation of solaroscillations. We also discuss the local seismic potential of these events.Comment: 8 pages, 3 figures, typo in title fixe
