Ear to the Wild: Springtime at London Lake

Springtime at London Lake, in Jack London State Historic Park, is alive with the sound of many species of birds and insects. Winter brought a good amount of rain, and London Lake is full. Grasses are growing, flowers are blooming, and the trees are sprouting new leaves. The habitat in and around London Lake is buzzing with the sound of insects. And of course, with the insects come the birds who feed on them. The Red-winged Blackbird, Song Sparrow, Spotted Towhee, Wilson's Warbler, and many others come together to create this soundscape. This is the sound of springtime at London Lake!
