Strange sky, the Dawn Chorus, Pinkish Bowl

 
 



There is a time of day officially allotted to birds. They wake up, maybe shake of their feathers, and begin to sing all at once. Called the Dawn Chorus, it's the time when these sky photos were taken, just before the sun comes up. The birds announce their territory and check in with their species members for location and a general I'm okay/you're okay report and what other unknowable communications? In our semi urban neighborhood it's one of the only times of day when it's quiet enough to hear them, before we layer it up with human sounds.
