The Song Of "An Eternal Morning"

 

As we note every year around this time, a sound that's being heard in American woodlands from the Atlantic coast to the Rockies, and one of our favorite bird calls, is the song of the male wood thrush. Henry David Thoreau wrote of the wood thrush,

"This is the only bird whose note affects me like music. It lifts and exhilarates me. It is inspiring. It changes all hours to an eternal morning." 

To us, it's a sound that brings back memories of leafy, sun-dappled forests of childhood, and we like to return to it every year around this time. 

Take a few moments to relax, close your eyes, listen, and enjoy.

The Song Of An Eternal Morning


This weekend, we finally heard one of our favorite bird calls after a too- long hiatus: the song of the male wood thrush.  Henry David Thoreau wrote of the wood thrush,

"This is the only bird whose note affects me like music. It lifts and exhilarates me. It is inspiring. It changes all hours to an eternal morning." 
Take a few moments to listen, relax, reflect and enjoy an eternal morning.

Singing In Summer


A sound that can now be heard in American woodlands from the Atlantic coast to the Rockies, and one of our favorite bird calls: the song of the male wood thrush. Henry David Thoreau wrote of the wood thrush,
"This is the only bird whose note affects me like music. It lifts and exhilarates me. It is inspiring. It changes all hours to an eternal morning." 
The summer solstice in this part of the world is at 11:54 EDT tomorrow.  Have a summer full of eternal mornings!

Mid-Week Palate Cleanser - The Wood Thrush

Weekend Song Bird


Normally, the song we'd bring you for the weekend would more likely be by The Byrds rather than... the birds.  But there are few creatures with as evocative and memorable a song as a wood thrush.  At some point, if you live in the United States east of the Great Plains, you might have heard the wood thrush on a summer stroll in the woods -- it's a sound that brings back memories of sun-dappled forests of childhood for us. We hope you enjoy the song, and your weekend.
