Episode 80: Yellow-Breasted Chat Night Song

Recorded on May 8, 2025, at the dogtrot on the sleeping porch, this is the sound of a night wrapped in thick fog after a day of thunderstorms. The fog hangs so heavily it drips from the eaves onto the rain drum below. Crickets and frogs provide a soft, steady rhythm beneath it all. A Yellow-breasted Chat takes advantage of the muffled quiet, his voice amplified in the dense air as he sings through the night during the peak of mating season. Sounds Southern Extended subscribers can enjoy over an hour of the soothing sounds of a southern night. This recording is best enjoyed in a quiet setting.
