When I hear songs like this I feel an incredible sense of excitement and calm at the same time.  It also brings back wonderful memories of canoe trips in Saskatchewan & Manitoba.

wonderful...yes peaceful calm and excitement at the same time. If all noise would stop and people would truly listen to the song of the wild, they would know what is most valuable and treasured.

A five minute recording from a Songmeter, autonomous recording unit deployed in the proposed Thaidene Nene national park area on the Northwest Territories by members of the Ni hat'ni Dene Guardians of the Lutsel K'e Dene First Nation of the Eastern Arm of Great Slave Lake.

Boreal Chickadee near the beginning, later a Swainson's Thrush singing and what sounds like a distant American Kestrel. Later a very close Dark-eyed Junco. Near the end there are what seem to be the "peep" sounds of Swainson's Thrushes nocturnal flight calls that they occasionally give during the day.
