Bird Language Midwest

Bird Language Midwest Birds tell us (and all animals) about the movement of fox, cats, deer, hawks, and humans on landscapes.

This is a place to share stories, photos, events, and questions around this ancient and universal art of tuning in to their early-warning system.

🌞 Good morning beautiful beings,

I had technical difficulties this morning and I apologize to anyone who tried to get on and could not. I wasn't able to get internet till now.
Next week there will be no bird language zoom call (Aug 26) , since I will be hiking in Colorado and can't promise service.
But stay tuned to be back on again for a morning sit together again on Wednesday Sept 2. Of course, you can always sit on your own. And if you do- send me findings and questions.
Here's a prompt to take to your sit spot in the inbetween (lean) time:

👀 Close your eyes. Can you pay awareness to the other four senses- taste, touch, smell, and sound simultaneously? Ease into it. Try rotating between the four. Now, can you relax into sensing two at once. Now three. Can you add the fourth? Then, might you softly open your eyes to the hue of the day, continuing to soak up awareness from the other four. How long can you stay wide open with all five senses together? How long with two, three, or four? 👂👃

Enjoy!
Always yours in birds,
Emily

Here is one exciting story from one participant of Weekly Wake-up Wednesdays 🐦
(happening again, tomorrow morning at 7:30am - PM Emily Foubert for the zoom code and password.)

💚 It was a joy to hear this!

"I was four days into the Bird Language class and sitting at my home office desk on the other side of out house from 12 fairly new chicks enjoying their first day outside. I noted that the bird sounds outside seemed different and, well, alarming. Sure enough, they were the TIK, TIK sounds that Emily had coached us on. Shortly, our old rooster began to act out also and I found myself jumping out of my chair to see if there was a problem. I looked out at the chicks and spotted a bobcat sneaking toward their enclosure!! We all thank you for the fledgling ability to tune into what's going on outside!!"

Fog and soft sun. Lots of juvenile (newly raised birds out of the nest) activity from many of our backyards. Young red shouldered hawks, wood peowees, robins, and mourning doves are testing their flight feathers, squabbling, and learning.

In the beginning of our 15 minute sit spot meditation, crows were making lots of noise far afield. Song close by me. Then at the end of the sit, the sun came out, bright and briefly. I sighed and felt the sit time coming to a close. But just then, a breeze picked up as the sun went away and I had an ominous feeling creep over me. My head turned to the left and I heard...no sound coming from that direction. A smattering of quick, short, sharp alarms issued from robins, sparrows, wrens, and even crows. FLASH! A brown and white bird-of-prey zoomed through the small window of open area between trees in my line of vision. The Cooper's Hawk was hunting in the field! The meaning of the crow alarms far afield from before came sharply into focus. Now, the hawk abiding somewhere within the osage forest just south of the barn, the birds nesting by the barn began their "a hawk is here!" emergency routines. A few scooted out toward me in fast flight, some made a high-pitched "tseet" call that means, "everyone be quiet and stay still- hawk is here!" The chickadees further away from the hawk, by me, called out their alarm of "dee dee dee dee!" Then the sit time came to a close and all of us on the zoom call shared our stories. 5 minutes passed by and the alarms were still sounding from the same spot close to the barn; I knew the Cooper's Hawk was still close. I had to move inside, so I did not catch the end of the Cooper's Hawk movement. Where did it go from there? Did he or she catch a meal? Will that hawk come back to hunt in that same spot around 8:20am again tomorrow?
