Summer Thunder

Recorded on June 19, 2026 at the dogtrot, this is the sound of afternoon thunder as pop-up storms gather over the hill country. The garden is buzzing with birds and bees. Orchard and Baltimore Orioles take center stage while Ruby-throated Hummingbirds chase one another through the flowers, their rapid wingbeats audible from a courtship display.

Listeners will also hear Northern Parula, American Crow, House Finch, Northern Cardinal, Blue Jay, Red-bellied Woodpecker, Carolina Wren, Fish Crow, Tufted Titmouse, Mourning Dove, House Sparrow, Red-eyed Vireo, Chipping Sparrow, Yellow-throated Warbler, Blue-gray Gnatcatcher, American Goldfinch, American Robin, Indigo Bunting and Purple Martin before the approaching rain.
