A Song of Three Birds: Part I

A Song of Three Birds: Part III

This is the third and final of three special episodes that I’ve been releasing. These episodes are from my performance and collaboration with Jack Magauhey. These three episodes have covered 3 totally new and different birds that I’ve never talked about before. In each episode, we learned about a bird and then listened to a piece of music inspired by that bird. This suite, Feathered Friends of Fern Ridge, was written by Jack Magauhey and I’m really excited to talk about the birds and hear his music.  I hope you enjoy it! This episode is about the Great Blue Heron, one of the most well-known and recognized birds in North America. So let’s get into it!

The Snowy Owl

Owls are some of the most well known birds in the world. Everyone loves them, and they get really excited if they see one. Maybe it's something about their creepy hoots and nocturnal lifestyle, making it seem almost like they are magical. Maybe it's because owls look sort of like us, but large, flat faces with big eyes. Or maybe it’s because they can turn their heads all the way around and do things normal birds can’t. Whatever it is, owls seem to fascinate us. But by far the most loved and sought-after owl is the Snowy Owl. Submit your Carrier Pigeon Corner questions in this form [https://forms.gle/fEZT1UCEnKWnPuYr8].

The Kirtland's Warbler

One of the rarest birds in North America, the Kirtland's Warbler lives only in the young Jack Pine forests in central Michigan, and it can only survive due to extensive conservation efforts. Sadly, it has been on the endangered species list for a long time, and is still considered threatened. But apart from that, it is a pretty bird, with the male being colored in shades of gray, black, and yellow. This bird is also very interesting, with many unique behaviors and facts.
