wood thrush

These wood thrushes were singing and nesting on our property near Easley in central Missouri. They are one of the great joys of living in our block of forest.

Lovely video! I've always thought Wood Thrushes have one of the nicest songs (out of the birds that I'VE heard, anyways). What bird is making the 1 note call in the background at 1:13?

@mattzx003 - I think that it's a Brown-headed Cowbird. Also in the background at various points: Scarlet Tanager, Kentucky warbler, Northern Cardinal, Rose-Breasted Grosbeak, and Eastern Wood Peewee.

I can't wait to get to Heaven and hear more of these sounds.... :o)

Thank you GOD for all these beautiful creatures!!!

I think the wood thrush has the most beautiful song of any North American bird. It is my favorite bird.

@Linuxrat dear friend, I am not sure what is your understanding of Heaven and of the Bible itself...!! They have no souls, so they won't be in heaven? I am not sure what you mean...?

@goodoldenoch

According to your bible,there are no animals or birds in heaves since they have no souls...Not that i believe there is a heaven or hell or a god anyway,but there you have it.

@mattzx003 The birdsong at 1:13 could be a veery...

This, sir, moves me to tears. How fortunate we humans are that can hear such sublime music as this!
