About Garden Songbirds
Before the sun clears the treeline, the garden fills with sound, a wren threading its outsized song through the shrubs, a bluebird flashing cobalt across the lawn, a thrasher running through its borrowed repertoire from the top of the fence post. These mornings have their own unhurried rhythm: dew still on the clover, the air cool and soft, every branch a stage. The dawn chorus is one of the small, reliable wonders a backyard offers, free of charge, every single day.
