I was meditating upstairs this morning, and heard a dove cooing. Only in the hearing, was I aware that the sound of birds had been missing from the mornings of winter. The sound brought to mind other mornings, when the soundtrack for my sitting was an orchestra of birdsong. A little later I heard a cardinal singing.
So the birds have noticed the increasing daylight as well! Even though nights are still cold, it's the season for them to begin staking out their territories for the spring. Welcome back. I look forward to hearing the sounds of spring.
