Episode 27: Eastern Bluebird – Voice of the Wild
Eastern Bluebird (Sialia sialis).
The beloved Eastern Bluebird is a conservation success story that shows the huge impact of dedicated conservation and stewardship actions. The bird’s musical and somewhat variable churring can be heard in scrubby meadows and forest clearings, especially when there are dead snags with old woodpecker holes present (or well-kept birdhouses.)
Do you want to learn more bird songs, frog calls, and insect noises? Join Voice of the Wild every Friday to explore a new wild voice. We’re available on most podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube.
