BIRDSONG IN THE WILD WOODS
If you turn the volume right up and start the video you can listen to the bird song as you scroll through the photos below.
The photos are of my and Beth's walk in the Wild Woods, near the end of the walk I felt that photographs alone just didn't catch the magic of a walk through these woods and so decided to take a video, not for their pictures but so I could capture the bird song. I forgot that we were nearing the road and so there is a whooshing sound from the cars near the end. Nevertheless the bird song was such a delight.
This area used to be a lake but is down to just a trickle these days.

Neat walk through the woods, made me think of the Biblical verse where God tells us to stay on the straight path, the more narrow one in life. We have to choose, thanks ! Gina

Nowhere on earth as peaceful as in the woods.
ReplyDeleteYou can hear the silence as well as the birds.
I think if everyone would take a walk through the woods on a regular basis, there would be no wars.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed listening to the birds as I scrolled through the pictures. I love the sound of them through the trees. It's just so relaxing looking, beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWhat an enchanting wood and I am listening to the birds singing as I write this ... what a great idea! Magical Joanne! I love the Oaks! I am trying to recognize the songs and calls but cannot... surely there must be thrushes ... I wonder don't our birds speak the same language. Do you know the bird calls and songs that were played. I want to go and watch the video now. ;>)
ReplyDeleteYou have done a splendid job, Joanne. I enjoyed listening to the sounds of the wild and I feel like I am walking with you in the woods. It makes it so real. Cheers!
