Blissful makes her first dangerous  ford over a swollen and dangerous river in flood from the non-stop rain.   For a SOBO  – or southbounder – on the Appalachian Trail, it's often wise to pay for delivery of a cache of food to break up the 10-day hike of the 100 Mile Wilderness. Right after the cache, the trail gets harder, steeply uphill into real mountains, plus river fords. With an unusual amount of rain, the rivers are in spate and dangerous.Blissful is alone and carefully crosses the Pleasant River – less pleasant, but doable especially with affixed ropes, yet there's no information on whether the ropes are safe. A Winter Wren congratulates her on a successful cross, and encourages a climb to Logan Brook right below White Cap Mountain, where a shelter awaits.MUSIC: Poema del Pastor Coya by Angel Lasala  as played by Alison Young, flute and Vicki Seldon, pianoSupport the show

Your kindness means the world to me and I hope you might feel inspired to explore the natural areas where you live.This episode is for a friend that is fighting the occasional sleepless night. The last episode (wind noise) didn't help him so I thought I'd record some creeks sounds, in the hopes it does the trick. Here's to the original hobbit hailing from Lowell by way of East Kentwood and East Lansing. A brother, friend and fellow Spartan. Welcome to episode 21 of the Nature is my Jam podcast! As always, I'm happy to see you again. This week, we are on the banks of Twenty-Two Creek in my hometown of Traverse City, Michigan. Twenty-Two Creek is a shallow and meandering creek that runs along the North Country Scenic Trail and is a prominent feature in the Valley of the Giants. Its gentle gurgling sounds are the backdrop for views of stunning trees that are hundreds of years old. While not a simple place to find if you aren't familiar with the area, I am still surprised that more people don't know about this amazing section of trail. I can access the trail from Scharmen Road where the NCT crosses. It is less than a mile from the road to get to this section of creek, which sits at the bottom of the Valley of the Giants. It is a beautiful hike and there will be a bench waiting for you where the creek intersects with the trail. If the name sound familiar, it is because we were at the same location back in July for Episode 7. It is surprising how a few months can change the soundscape of an area so much. In July, the creek greeted us with the sounds of a Winter Wren, only in Michigan during their breeding season. In this episode, the wrens are gone, but we can hear Owls, as well as a persistent voice that I don't recognize. I will be in Mexico when this episode gets published and am planning on coming back with some glorious sounds to share with you. Have a great week and look forward to chatting when I return. As always, I welcome your thoughts and hope you enjoy this episode. Thanks again for your continued support! Recording Summary:Date and Time: 10/21/2022 | 04:15 AMLocation: Grand Traverse County, Michigan, USALandscape/Feature: Valley of the Giants and Twenty-Two CreekConditions: Unseasonably Warm, CleanRecording Device: Zoom F6 Field RecorderMicrophone(s): Audio Technica BP 4025Digital Audio Workstation: Adobe AuditionSupport the show

Your kindness means the world to me and I hope you might feel inspired to explore the natural areas where you live. World Listening Day found me logging miles on the North Country Scenic Trail (NCT) on my way to the aptly named, “Valley of the Giants”. This section of the trail will take you down a semi-steep descent into a valley of old growth forest that features a meandering creek and several beaver ponds. While a popular hike for locals, it isn't uncommon to be the only one around for miles. The Grand Traverse Hiking Club maintains the Valley of the Giants section of the NCT. This club is also responsible for the trail system (101 miles) running from Hodenpyl Dam to Starvation Lake. We join this recording as dawn approaches. Twentytwo Creek is flowing and cascading through downed Cedar Trees and thick grasses. The soothing sounds of the creek are interrupted by what I think is a Scarlet Tanager as daylight breaks. Not to be outdone by the early bird, a Winter Wren steals the show with its spirited song that lasts for several minutes. Of course, it wouldn't be Northern Michigan without also hearing from the Robin's and Blue Jay's.I recorded this soundscape using the Zoom F3 Field Recorder and the Sonorous Objects SO.1 Microphone pair. This combination has become my favorite rig for hiking and overnight recording. Date & Time: | 6/19/2022 | 5:30 AMLocation: | Traverse City, Michigan USALandscape/Feature: | Valley of the Giants on the North Country TrailConditions: | Clear.

Anson and Chip talk about the Carolina Wren, the House Wren, and the Winter Wren. The Carolina Wren is a very vocal bird, but you rarely see them. They're often seen in towns and suburban areas, and will scold you if you get too close! Meanwhile the House Wren is more easily visible and the Winter Wren tries to hide itself often.

Chip and Anson discuss the two Waterthrush species, both of which we see here in Vermont. The Northern Waterthrush is fairly common here, but occasionally you can spot a Louisiana Waterthrush near running water like mountain brooks. They also discuss reports of Winter Wren coming back to Vermont.

Episode: 3SummaryBirds are an incredibly successful and diverse group of animals. In this episode, you’ll get an overview of the origin of avian species diversity and its present-day distribution across the planet.I offer some definitions of ‘biodiversity’ with respect to birds. We’ll discuss why this diversity is important.Links to Some Things Mentioned in this EpisodeClements Checklist of the Birds of the WorldResearch Citations‍Genetic research leading to the species split between the Winter Wren and Pacific Wren (Toews and Irwin. 2008. Molecular Ecology)Errors and ClarificationsClarification - 07:25 - I say that the Clements Checklist has 10,721 bird species. This is true. However, this number includes about 160 extinct species. So this means there are 10,561 extant (i.e. living, non-extinct) bird species on the planet today.Link to this episode on the Science of Birds website

The start of Wake-Robin, chapter 2, In the Hemlocks. Author and gentleman rambler, John Burroughs, begins a guided tour in the hemlocks. Years before, townsfolk, tanners, and lumbermen attempted in vain to tame and exploit the grove. But nature proved uncooperative and the effort abandoned. By his account, the spirit and energy of the wilderness...

Naturalist John Burroughs quotes ‘To the Cuckoo’ by William Wordsworth. He considers in detail the White-eyed Vireo’s skilled mimicry in her mid-summer song and how it may rival the mockingbird’s own ability. Burroughs shares observations on how elevation might impact and effect the distribution of species in the Town of Highlands, New York.  And concludes...

Paul Peterson said his favorite bird is the Winter Wren, and Laura reads a John Bates poem about this bird's splendid song.

Jeremy and Michael review the Winter Wren and discuss gaming The Price is Right, coffee cleanses, common misconceptions around the common cold, a Randy Newman Sting cover album, Banksy—the anonymous street artist / popular Icelandic band front-man, the odds of crashing in a 747, drugging children, mandatory revocation of licenses from senior citizens, and a Marvel/Star Wars fusion universe.
