I was out of town when this thread started – thanks to whomever got it going.
My five have a (mainly) East of the Cascades bent.
1. The song of the Canyon Wren breaking the silence here in canyon
country.
2. A Townsend’s Solitaire singing on a clear, crisp winter’s day.
3. A cattail marsh chorus at dusk with Yellow-headed Blackbirds, American
Bitterns, Soras, Virginia Rails, various ducks and Marsh Wrens contributing to
the symphony of sounds.
4. A pair of duetting Boreal Owls high up Tumalo Mountain.
5. The haunting calls of an Iiwi coming from a fog-shrouded Hawaiian
kapuka.
Honorable mention goes to any Catharus thrush song.
