Bird and Frog Chorus at First Light

Artist:

James Thatcher

Olympic Peninsula, USA

Recommended charity: Washington Environmental Council

Notes:

Clear cuts such as the one where this recording was made can evoke mixed feelings. Their appearance will at first seem like scars on the forest, yet when I want to see or hear animals in Western Washington, these are the first places I look. As new growth settles in these clear cuts, wildlife follows in abundance. Here I not only recorded a wide number of birds and the lone pacific chorus frog who decided to join in, but I also found several bedding areas for elk.
