birdies

A summer dawn chorus at Strangways, central Victoria Australia.

You can hear the chipping of our numerous Yellow-tufted Honeyeaters waking up, the rich song of a Grey Shrike-thrush, a Yellow Robin, distant Kookaburras, the warm, booming calls of Bronzewing Pigeons, twittery reels from a Blue Fairy-wren, and the carolling of Magpies.

Australian bush summer dawn chorus

Birdsong from an autumn afternoon at Mt. Kooyoora in central Victoria

A variety of woodland birds can be heard, including Spotted Pardalotes, White-browed Babblers, Fuscous Honeyeaters and Diamond Firetails

Kooyoora autumn afternoon

3 minute audio sample from the 80 minute nature soundscape; "Cloudforest - Malaysia", available for download from www.listeningearth.com/LE/product.php?id=120

A chain of rainforested hills run the length of peninsular Malaysia. Mists drift through these mountain forests, condensing and nourishing an abundance of epiphytes, mosses and ferns.

In the pre-dawn, a chorus of piping frogs and nocturnal insects gently fills the humid air. With first light, the wonderful diversity of birdlife found here begins to awake. Babblers chatter animatedly, and the whooping of Cuckoo Doves echo through the trees. One of the standout species of the forest is heard, the unusual buzzing call of a Fire-tufted Barbet.

A flock of Silver-eared Mesias pass by with much scolding and sweet singing, and the electric cries of a pair of Yellownapes carry through the treetops.

For all the tropical diversity, this recording is actually very easy on the ear. There is an organic pace to the changing soundscape; sounds ebbing and flowing gradually as the morning progresses.

Track #1: Remembering - Bernward Koch's album "Remembering"

The song of creation is forever unfolding. Each moment, another gateway reveals itself, a new flower in which nature spirits express their joy in the flow of creation. Just like a flower the life of each human is an expression of the natural joy that can and will unfold itself in each Heart and all of Creation.

The Australian Outback - ancient, mysterious and often breathtakingly beautiful.

Listen to predawn birdsong echoing around Ormiston Gorge, an exhilarating flock of wild Budgerigars, Wedgebills - 'the windchimes of the desert', the cries of Black Cockatoos carrying across the plains, rare desert frogs and, under a full moon, the eerie wail of Dingoes.

Happy Budgies - The Sounds of Wild Budgerigars

Recorded in the deserts of Australia - the home of the Budgerigar - this album presents the calls and songs of wild Budgerigars.

Communally roosting Budgies awake at first light, chattering amiably, before fluttering off in small groups to feed. Throughout the day they are heard communicating socially while interacting, feeding and preening, including contented, quiet subsong. As well as Budgies, you will hear a range of Australia's inland birdlife.

Budgies are very social and vocal birds, and this recording is intended to bring health-promoting stimulation to pet birds and relaxing listening for their owners. 

'Happy Budgies'- album sample

Hear Budgerigars in their natural habitat - the dry, inland of Australia.

Nesting in ancient, gnarled eucalypts by an ephemeral waterhole, Budgies can be heard calling as they socialise and fly off to feed. Nearby, prolifically flowering eremophila bushes attract Spiney-cheeked Honeyeaters, with their lovely wheazy calls.

Also to be heard are a great variety of desert birdlife, including occasional groups of Cockatiels as they wing overhead, Red-backed Kingfishers, Galahs, Magpie Larks, Mulga Parrots, Spotted Bowerbirds, tiny Diamond Doves, and delicately-coloured Pink Cockatoos.

A subtle and beautiful recording from the home of the wild Budgerigar.

Inner Illumination

Inner Illumination - Sample

In the leafy shade of a woodland in Southern Turkey, the air is perfumed with the aroma of Frankincense. 

In ancient times, this small forest supplied sacred resin that was traded from Egypt to Babylon. Still a productive grove today, it is an oasis of calm. Birdsong wafts among the trees - Serins, Chaffinches, Long-tailed Tits, Nuthatches, Blackbird and Greenfinches are heard as they flit among the branches on a sunlit, spring morning.

'Time for the Tarkine' is a professionally recorded nature soundscape, available for  **FREE ** download at:
www.listeningearth.com/tarkine

This is a 3 minute audio sample from the 75 minute album. 

Australia's Tarkine region of northwest Tasmania contains the largest expanse of temperate rainforest in the southern hemisphere.

Here, hidden deep in river valleys and wild uplands, huge myrtle trees are festooned with epiphytes and mosses, and in their cool shade thrive an understory of tree ferns. These forests are ancient - they once covered the whole of Australia, and date as far back as the time of the dinosaurs and the primordial supercontinent of Gondwana.

Sadly, this region is under imminent threat of mining. There are currently 11 applications for large, open-cut developments pending, which the Australian government seems intent upon passing regardless of any environmental or social consequences.

Hence we've made this album freely available, so you can hear the wild voices of the Tarkine speak for themselves, and get a sense of what is at stake.

Download the complete album, grab your headphones, take some time & enjoy - and please - share this with friends.
