You must check out their song!!! It is the essence of summer and the beauty of wild woods. http://www.allaboutbirds.org/guide/Hermi...
They return to our land during the last week of May every year and are the theme music that shapes the feel of summer. We have a couple of large elderberry bushes in our yard and they fill up on the berries before migrating to their winter grounds

I am! Never knew it was they who made it :)
Thanks Noe and Pili!
Beautiful story! Here, we have different "summer songs", but this is very nice, like your pic!
Are you hearing them in your woods?
Thank you for that! What a lovely song indeed.
Very nice pictures and good story!
