Sleeping in is not an option these days, the birds in the yard are chirping very loud and there seems to a greater diversity in sounds that I have ever heard before. Trills and songs that I cannot recognize. I am guessing they are nesting nearby as well so it maybe possible to see them too. Used to be that the bird sounds died down by afternoon but these days they can be heard into sunset.
This is part of the larger trend reported in this Atlantic article. Not sure why the author cites these changes we are able to experience in the natural world as "jarring". Just about anyone would prefer birdsong and quiet to man made noise. I like the quote and the end of the article “Nature is taking a breath when the rest of us are holding ours.”It seems like this was long overdue. Once our lives return to "normal" and we will be back causing stress to nature as we have done for the longest time.
