Meadow In Summer

Editor's Note: When I went out to pick peas Thursday, I heard:

Tree swallows

Hermit thrush (in the woods)

Red-winged blackbird

Song sparrow

Green frog (I think - sounds like a long thick rubber band being plucked)

I hear birds, because I'm a birder. Joe, my 4-year-old son, also hears insects -- he's got a shorter horizon. Maybe you listen differently -- to small engines, to people's voices, to songs or to stories. What do you hear at the farm?

On our farm, you can always hear....the crow of the rooster, the clucking of the hens, the occasioanal yell for a treat from the goat pen, robins, mockingbirds, spring peepers, and bullfrogs :)
