We’ve achieved the delightful time of year in Indiana when you can open your windows at night time. The great evening breeze induces a trance-like rest. Around 6 a.m., as the ambient light-weight replaces the darkness, the orchestra of songbirds will become my morning alarm. The dawn chorus of birds doesn’t have a snooze button, so I increase and make my espresso.

I identify a few familiar seems, the chattering of crimson-winged blackbirds, squawks from blue jays, and singing robins. They have been lively in my garden for the previous month.

May well brings quite a few more songbirds to Indiana. Some are stopping for a rest as they migrate further north and many others will stake-out a local territory to raise their younger. Their sounds are a mix of tunes and phone calls.
