Above the Din

My husband and I were recently in New York City for a BIG BIG BIG city vacation.  Midtown NYC is about as far away and as different from our West Coast beach community as we could get!  However, above the din of sirens, honking taxis, bus engines, vendors hawking their wares, and the general noise several million people crammed in one space can make was the sound of a song bird.  Yes, above that frenetic din was a singer of songs voiced raised in joy.  Amazing and wonderful!

Song birds

Tiny birds with big voices!  That's what we've been hearing at our house.  Their songs are such a welcome sound! 

Here on the beach, we often only hear the cawing of crows and the sound of a seagull squabble! 

The delicate songs soaring back and forth across our neighborhood between these tiny happy friends are a melodious addition to the powerful and never ending song of the surf.
