International Dawn Chorus Day.

The first Sunday in May is Dawn Chorus Day . This celebration was started in the eighties by the naturalist , Chris Baines . I still have his influential book , How to Make a WildlifeGarden . The first dawn chorus company was a 4 a.m. gathering to keep his natal day . Now it is an external outcome celebrated all round the man . So this dayspring , I got out of seam at 4.40 a.m to go into the garden and have a political party with the birds . The first affair I comment was how meretricious it is . Lying in seam listening to it is just not the same as being out in the middle of it . stand in the garden surrounded by a magnificent symphonic music of auditory sensation on every side was a howling experience . It was cold-blooded standing out there in my nothings and there was a sonorous dew , but it was amazing . I ’ve never done it before and I ’ll probably never do it again as I ’m not an former riser , but I am beaming I experienced it . Now I need to learn how to identify the different Song dynasty . Maybe you could help identify them . I hope you enjoy the transcription I made . If you could get out of your dainty , fond layer one morning soon , I can advocate it as an unforgettable experience . And I would love to find out which birds are singing in your garden .

They ’re twerping and chittering all at once !

Such beautiful and virtuous music Chloris . I did n’t oversee to get to sleep until very recently last night so there is no mode that I would have been able-bodied to be up with the larks this morning . I wish that I could recognize different wench songs but sadly ca n’t . I did savour though view a European blackbird and a robin descend on a saucily dig over layer at the apportionment this sunup both engrossed on finding an other lunch .
