Episode 187: Eastern Wood-Pewee at Blue Hour

 

Recorded on July 19, 2026 at the woods' edge around Bullfrog Pond, this is the sound of the first birdsong in the pre-dawn. Against a backdrop of steadily trilling crickets and the occasional calls of a Southern Cricket Frogs, the day begins with the clear, whistled song of an Eastern Wood-Pewee.

Listeners will also hear Summer Tanager, Northern Cardinal, Wood Thrush, Northern Mockingbird, Eastern Bluebird, Indigo Bunting, Carolina Wren, Red-winged Blackbird, Eastern Towhee and Mourning Dove as the sun peeks above the horizon.
