I have just spent the early hours of the morning (4:00am until 7:00am)
recording the Black River Heronry, WA. After a request made by Suzanne Krom,
President Herons Forever.
http://www.heronsforever.org/index.htm
With maybe 130 active nests at the moment, this is the largest colony in the
tri-county region. Many of the young are still on the nests and the clicks
and screams are something of an auditory treat. I met with Suzanne
yesterday, a very passionate person and one that has dedicated her time
along with many others in trying to save this colony from property
development.
This recording is around 1:08 seconds, about 5 Megs in size, great if you
have DSL.... I did resample the file too!
Enjoy the sounds of the parent herons arriving at the nests to feed the
young, with the young screaming out as though they have been given their
favorite treat..
I have more recordings on request.

Make every Garden a wildlife Habitat!
When the animals come to us,
Asking for our help,
Will we know what they are saying?
When the plants speak to us
In their delicate, beautiful language,
Will we be able to answer them?
When the planet herself
Sings to us in our dreams,
Will we be able to wake ourselves, and act?
-Gary Lawless
