Good morning! It’s Thursday, and another sign of spring is the return of the seasonal help wanted ads. They’re always the same: Hotels need housecleaners, restaurants need servers and kitchen staff. Summer can’t start without them. Everyone feels the urgency. Just yesterday, a pair of Barred Owls stationed themselves deep in the woods and called, “Who cooks for you? Who cooks for you-all?” back and forth to each other. (Tap that right-pointing arrow up top for a listen.)
My husband took a similar video in the early morning during our trip to Maui. You can hear the ocean and a variety of birds he sent it to me and told me to save it so I could watch and listen anytime I need something calming. He knows how much I enjoy the Daily Respite and especially Sunday’s posts. Hearing all the beautiful birds in todays video was the best way to start the day!
So lovely. I've been enjoying the Merlin app that identifies birdsong - so now I know who is saying what at my house. LOL Sure wish we had some owls. I also like to have the bird cam at Cornell on in the background while I work (since my office has no exterior windows). https://www.allaboutbirds.org/cams/cornell-lab-feederwatch/#
Spring - how glorious. I love owls. When I lived in the woods in WV, sans air conditioning, I could hear the owls all night long. i love owls. My late husband did several large wood burned owl pictures - in their habitats - which I still have displayed in my DE house.
Everyone is so chatty !
Nice Maine sounds!
Fingers crossed, we are vaulting into the 60’s and even HIGH 70’s next week (hellooo flooding) so maybe peepers forthcoming!!

Fabulous sky❣️And yes!! to the soft serve❣️🤣 (I think I’ve heard those owls chatting here on the other coast! 👍)

Loved having a listen at your soundscape… so peaceful!
Another owl lover here who keeps the bedroom window open* at night to hear their calling. Barred, great horn, I'm not fussy.

* depends on weather, from a smidgen in winter to both windows wide open in summer
