Episode 207: Moonshine on the Sugarberry
Recorded on October 25, 2026 at the dogtrot beneath the light of the Full Hunter’s Moon, this is the sound of a nighttime cricket chorus accompanied by the soft, distant hooting of a pair of Great Horned Owls as autumn brings the beginning of their courtship season and an increase in vocalizations. Cooler nights have arrived in the hill country, turning the Sugarberry leaves from lime green to gold. Listeners will notice how the rhythm of the cricket song has slowed considerably from the rapid, lively trills of summer, settling into a gentler, more measured chorus as autumn deepens.
