Making A Joyful Noise

Sunlight was streaming through the leaves casting uneven lighting. Thankfully, the hornbill was spared.

Planet Earth 3: Forests
So the forest episode is...good. There's not much I want to say about it. It's not a bad episode, it just feels kind of not very memorable. And I hate saying this cuz the segment with the Temminck's tragopan is amazing it probably took the crew weeks in the bird tent to capture that. And the segment with the Kermode bear also mentioned salmon nutrient subsidy which is great. But besides those, this episode is just a lot less packed compared to the others, especially with only six segments. I do still love the behind the scenes where they document the community in Uganda living alongside chimpanzees though, building or reconnecting relationships with nature is what we need right now and is what I want to see in these documentaries.
7/10

Making up oc's in my head based on birds I like..
I don't have much so far but here they are if you car.... the Oriental pied hornbill is my self insert his name is Wyren but sometimes nicknamed Wren cuz i like to be called my own name gahahhaa
he has a friend based on the nightjar her name is Gemini nicknamed Mini cuz... nightjar are smol.... Wyren and Gemini like to search for conspiracy creatures for fun but ghosts started to appear but Wyren doesn't want to admit hes scared of them and he still gets dragged to ghost hunt and cant sleep
Silas is a biker based on rhinoceros hornbill uhrm he's that stoic guy trope but he has his soft spots... maybe he tried boxing at one point and there's this guy based on the Philippine eagle whos way tougher
idk what the story is I just make up images in my head..
Paradise flycatcher is a dancer (the long tail on the bird are like the ribbons part of his design), his partner in dance is based on greater racket tailed drongo,.... They're exes maybe...
One of my favs..! Luzon bleeding heart is an artist.. Think those beaded necklaces with red beads like blood yeah I think they're a fashion student maybe, I also think they help to run a bookshop.. A massive introvert and writes poetry
Keel-billed toucan has like a retro style going on.. He either roller skates or skateboards idk.. He has a sibling based on the firey-billed aracari they both have that..raccoon dyed hair idk what it's called but they're very cool.. Keel-billed toucan guy is sunshine trope
Ok yah that's it I wanna draw them but they'll probbaly look better in my head and I have no time to draw now 💀💀

I love how weird and different animals can get, even if they’re technically the same type of animal. Like, take hornbills for example.
We have here an Oriental Pied Hornbill.
We have the Rhinoceros Hornbill over here, stylish as ever.
And then we have the Helmeted Hornbill.

Meet the strange-looking bird making a spectacular recovery amid the skyscrapers of Singapore
Wildlife conservation film-maker and photographer, Tim Plowden, explores the return of the remarkable oriental pied hornbill. Singapore has long had a reputation as one of the world’s greenest cities. Following independence from Malaysia almost 60 years ago, efforts began to transform this island nation into a ‘garden city’. Greenery adorns buildings in Singapore making it […]

Beakuency December 2023: The Wren Day, and looking back the 1st year of Beakuency
Listen to this episode HERE!
Photo: St Stephen's Day, Wren Boys : Three wren boys in road, Athea, Co. Limerick. (1947) from UCD Digital Library. "The custom of hunting the wren on St. Stephen's day is known throughout most of Ireland. Groups of people dressed in disguise go from house to house, singing and playing music and asking for money in return. In former times the wren-boys carried a dead wren on a bush and asked for money to "bury the wren".
Happy Wren Day! The December episode of Beakuency featured “The Wren Song” by The Clancy Brothers & Tommy Mackem, and two “Hunt the Wren” recordings: instrumental version by Manx Folk Dance Society, and a song version by Sharron Kraus.
It has been one year for this radio program Beakuency. I have learned a lot from every local bird person I spoke with for this show, but particularly inspiring were the conversations with biologists. So we listen back to excerpts from two interviews with them: Anne Bloomfield of Hudson Valley Farm Hub, and Erik Kiviat of Hudsonia.
Listen to the full interviews:
Anne Bloomfield on Beakuency March 2023 episode
Erik Kiviat on Beakuency September 2023 episode
Also on the show: bird-inspired music released in 2023, including “Birds of Spring” by Simon Joyner, Michael Krassner & Fred Lonberg Holm, “The Dream Island Of Birds” by Mike Cooper, “Pigeon Tones for Eggflute” by Ecka Mordecai & Malvern Brume from a bird-inspired compilation Synthetic Bird Music (Mappa 2023), and Jim Denley “With Weather Volume 2: Gadigal Country” (Splitrec 2023).
