Songbirding Under 5kHz

It’s a warm afternoon in early summer, and I’ve returned to the north end of the Pine Tree Point reserve.

My plan is to hike in as far as I feel comfortable with, to get to know what habitats can be found along the main trail.

In this season of Songbirding, we’ve heard a number of species, some multiple times.

Long ago I did some end-of-season birdsong identification quizzes, and I wanted to do that again, but in a smaller scale.

In this episode you’ll hear a few minutes recordings of a prominent species — sometimes two — followed by an identification of the species, before the next recording plays. These are all species that have been featured on episodes 1 through 7.

I hope that this can help you learn a new song or two, or, if birdsong identification isn’t your thing, you can still just listen to the birds sing.

The lands surrounding Johnson Harbour are primarily alvar: rocky ground, with very little soil. Many sections contain a lot of Jack Pine as well, making this a new habitat type to explore.

Early morning in my campsite, I hit record as the birds wake (me) up.

It’s one day later, and after a big wind storm in the morning, I’m out visiting a rarely visited nature sanctuary adjacent to the National Park. We’ll be listening to the Blackburnian Warbler, Magnolia Warbler, and these Blue-headed Vireos.

It's late afternoon during the summer solstice of 2021, a time of the day when the birds are singing at a slower, more relaxed pace in the quiet soundscape of the Bruce Peninsula National Park in Ontario, Canada.
