Early morning walk onto the heath and this Woodlark was the song that greeted us.

Woodlark

Cardinal (demo)

Birds go crazy in the morning in my neighbourhood so I decided to record it.

Birdsong in the Spring, morning

A song about spring, the reawakening of life.  Warm acoustic melodies blend with organic instrumentation, bird song mixed with peaceful soundscapes

Lyrics:
I've been running through the fields
With the wind wisping the scenery
I guess the blossoms are in bloom
Racing in to springtime
A moment to feel alive
Returning with exploding hues

Days are getting longer
I see the sun
reflecting on
the colours

Bluebells growing
Birdsong soundscaping the sky
In the springtime
In the springtime

Sprouting flowers, daylight hours growing again
Crawling out the cave and see the world come back to life
Our garden paradise

Blue skies come over
In clarity
A path I see
Forward

Bluebells growing
Birdsong soundscaping the sky
In the springtime
In the springtime

Leaves are growing
Flower crowned
And all the bees are buzzing round
All..
The pretty things with wings
Returning

Bluebells growing
Birdsong soundscaping the sky
In the springtime
In the springtime

Spring

Here is separate soundscape from original track 'Budinantys Virpesiai (66)' where I also impart my vocal messages in my native Lithuanian language.
Enjoy!
P.s. If you like it I suggest to listen through different types of headphones cause they may reveal different dimensions of this track.

Good morning from the Birds

An important central landmark in the swamp for over a decade that had become a bit of a SwampVids icon, the era of the swamp log has concluded. The characteristic bow of the log rotted through and collapsed as of this evening.

The Swamp Log Deaths On

Third time using this remarkable and versatile backing track by Reinhold Tracks ==> https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=liZNEiWon-w
IF I WERE A WREN
If I were a bird
I’d just assume be a wren
Not the most remarkable bird
Not that I’ve ever been

CHORUS
If I were a wren
If I were a wren
A plain ol’ pudgy brown wren
If I were a wren
I’d flawlessly blend
Never fear fitting in again, no-no

I’d fly incognito
Incognito indeed
Livin’ in a free world
Where I could satisfy my needs
Yeah, if I were a wren
A friend would be a cinch to find
And if that sum-gun flies the coop
Be another mate in line

CHORUS
If I were a wren
If I were a wren
A plain ol’ pudgy brown wren, yeah-yeah-yeah
If I were a wren
I’d flawlessly blend
Never fear fitting in again, yeah-yeah

Do-do, Do-do
Do-do, Do-do

In a loop, I’d sing
I would sing the day through
Kill a wren in certain circles
Bad luck comes for you, yeah

If I were a wren
If I were a wren
A plain ol’ pudgy brown wren, yeah-yeah-yeah
If I were a wren
I’d flawlessly blend
Never fear
Never fear fitting in again.

IF I WERE A WREN

In Khimaira’s premiere episode, Nancy joins V to talk about names, birds, friendship, and the quiet ways we learn from each other. It’s a conversation about staying open — to language, to love, and to the surprising knowledge that comes from other people when we allow ourselves to be vulnerable. This episode is an offering, a shared moment of reflection on how we learn from those we love and what it means to listen with when seated in care.

This episode features original sound art by Yīxiāo, titled Bird Seeds, as well as field recordings of birds captured by Nancy and V
