If you have a sick or injured bird in your possession I can not help this bird in any way it is strongly advised to contact a local vet or wildlife official before any decisions are made. It is very easy to do more harm than good when handling any wildlife.

The Unworldly Song of the Hermit Thrush video: ua-cam.com/video/JTpyG_1Wads/v-deo.html
Thank you for your videos...it's been fascinating to travel all down the coast of the U.S. and now we are deep into central Mexico and hearing and observing the birds. It's amazing!
Love your content! I care for birds all year round and do my best to keep them happy well, fed/watered, and healthy. Thank you for your post.
I loved this video.
Ah no why would it feel good!
When I was a young man I was walking through a forest in Norway in the dead of night at high summer. The forest was completely still. Not a hint of wind, not the faintest rustle. Suddenly a blackbird started singing in a tree 10-15 meters up the path. I sat down underneath that tree with my back against the trunk and listened with my eyes closed.
Never have I heard any bird sing so masterfully, and I have listened to a great many. Its tone was deep velvet, its pace was relaxed and deliberate, and there was a sense of coherency in the whole that made me think of classical works. The performance lasted maybe 10 minutes which is a long time for a blackbird to sing uninterrupted, though I admit I lost the sense of time a little so I'm not sure. During that time it never once repeated itself. Every new strophe was clearly distinguishable from the last, every strophe was a work of art and I couldn't recognize any mimicry in it either.
When I'm due to pass, if I have forgotten everything else, I'll remember sitting under that tree that night listening to that blackbird virtuoso that sang just because it could. Better than Michelangelo, better than Mozart, better than falling in love. Just the undisturbed beauty of life at its most remarkable, and an old soul in the body of a little bird.
Beautifully written. I also love your profile picture lol
@@MrCarpelan Thank you kindly. The profile pic is a play on anatidaephobia. It's a crazy story about a phobia that didn't use to exist until Gary Larson made a Far Side strip about someone stressing out over being stared at by a duck, and so now it's a real mental disorder :p Speaks volumes I think about human existence.
Wow...Beautifully written just like the songs the bird sang to you.. Your words put me right where you were in your experience. Absolutely incredible. Thank you for sharing 💛
@@keeper6458 Thank you kindly.
Thank you for sharing that beautiful experience. ☘️
Hearing a hermit thrush on a mountain is heavenly
they're singing to make US happy.
🐦 I know I feel good-er when the birds do their singings. 🐦
I do too 🥰
🥰
There is nothing more peaceful or enjoyable than hearing the songs of birds. It is just as much a part of the beauty of nature as the trees and flowers. The sounds they make are much better than any man made sound.....which is technically noise. Birds don't make noise, they make melodies ❤
I agree :)
Most noise humans make is, indeed, just that. But we also create some pretty beautiful music. Aaron Copland's Appalachian Spring and Beethoven's Pastoral come to mind. However, nothing we do can quite rival the songs of certain birds such as the red winged blackbird or the hermit thrush. The calls that these and other birds make makes my hair stand on end and my skin develop goosebumps. Just this afternoon, I discovered a red winged blackbird singing from a maple tree in my backyard. I was thrilled, as it is one of my favorite songs.
That's because you don't speak bird.
All they do is insult each other and catcall.
Woah there buddy the bass guitar is pretty cool too
Birds really bring flavor and Beauti to life!
It is super adorable when they get their wings flippy flappy, doing their mating dances! Birds are great
I truly believe birds sing to thank God for having given their lives.
I know their songs make me happy.
Me tooo :)
@@LesleytheBirdNerd 🥰
I truly believe they're happy when they sing. When I hear a bunch of birds chirping away, it sounds like they're having a celebration, a joyful party.
I really like that you said you BELIEVE they are happy when they sing. It shows that you understand that we don't currently have a way of KNOWING what their emotional state is.
The birds don't sing. They screech in pain.
@@Quotenwagnerianer 😄

Hearing the birds sing always helps bring me some peace.
In the early 1990s my sister and I visited Chania, Crete, in April. It had been chilly and overcast but by noon on our third day it warmed up and the sun came out. We were eating outside at a taverna on a small square when I noticed a door open in the ancient block of townhouses opposite me. An elderly woman in black opened only the top half of the door and disappeared. She soon came back with a cage and hung it on a bracket beside the door. That block was getting full exposure to the sun and I could see that the cage housed a canary of the most gorgeous, intense yellow. It began to sing and that tiny thing could be heard throughout the square. It went up and down the scale at least 2 or 3 octaves at amazing speed. It sang its heart out and then started all over again. I was sorry to leave. No one can tell me that that bird was not singing for pure joy after a long dreary winter indoors.
I think they sing because they're happy, their songs make me feel happy.
I'm pretty sure birds enjoy singing. A lot of sparrows come to eat at my feeder and after having their fill many of them will stay in the bushes around. I put a shallow plate with clear water so they can have a dip in warm days, and after bathing and playing they gather. Then one of them will start singing, another will follow and suddenly all of them will sing together. It is magical... And you can see this behavior in humans as well, with laughter, yawining or also with crying. Emotions are highly contagious.
Certainly not convinced by the "experiment" either, but am certain that birds often sing for the sheer joy of it.
Robins have the sweetest songs.
it does make some empirical sense, after a pet bird stops singing when they're depressed
No need to apologize. I think you are completely right, a lot of birds sing for pleasure.
If birds can feel pain, then they can feel joy! No question about it!
Not exactly they are different nerve pathways. Its possible they have both though
@@mclovin3725 Yes, it is possible singing is simply an instinctual compulsion like breathing. The may sing because their brain compels them to without providing rewarding feelings.
@@chemicalburn that's exactly like the same way I am compelled to eat cigarettes. I feel no reward nor punishment from it yet my body is compelled to eat cigarettes. Often times I would be asked what I would like for dinner but I have to tell them no thanks, I'm so full from cigarettes.
jasmin - So you can prove they feel joy? I think they do feel happiness, joy, contentment. But I can't prove that they do.
This video is about song birds but anyone who has ever owned a parrot can confirm that birds can feel a wide range of emotions.
I always wonder what they’re thinking! 😄🐦🐤🐦⬛
ABirdPerson.....Me too!
I do too, I don't think it would be as complex as our thinking ( our minds are very developed) but they must do some for sure. :)
One of my favourite birds is the Mockingbird, and I can absolutely attest that these birds sing for fun. Their song is parallel to none, because they sing many songs of other birds in continuous succession. And the jubilance and verve in which they sing.. they will actually get so excited they jump in the air with their wings half spread and plop back down while singing on.
I'm convinced they do it for no other reason sometimes. It is not uncommon to hear at two or three AM a lone mockingbird singing. Ive had bad nights alone when this bird began singing and I no longer felt alone. I even hear them occasionally, While it is raining, not when it's slowing down, but just right in the middle of it. I love them so much.
I just wanted you to know that you put the image of a mockingbird doing a birdy version of "Singin' in the Rain" in my head, and that I thank you profusely for it.
I totally concur! I love the Mockingbird!! How they can imitate so many other birds is way beyond my comprehension!
My dear, beloved mother could also do imitations, and she'd get going on a Mockingbird imitation, and she was really good at it! I couldn't decide which one was the better!! It was amazing!
I used to tell people I liked mockingbirds best as a kid, and would get snickers or blank stares.
You don't know that.
A mockingbird might look at a human cashier and think that he scans goods for fun, because he does it so much.
Mockingbirds are definitely my favorite to hear singing... And sometimes ribbitting like frogs.

Psalm 91
I live in an urbanized part of Houston, but we have a lot of flood control projects that attract all kinds of birds. And they do like to sing pre sunrise to beat the traffic noise. Cardinals and Carolina wrens are the most common singers before dawn. The most common urban menace bird is the great-tailed grackle. They are much more a menace than city pigeons. White wing doves were once more common but it seems Hurricane Harvey destroyed their breeding grounds a couple hundred miles away.
My favorite time is early afternoon when I snuggle with my body pillow and watch old movies on UA-cam.
I’ve seen birds sing as they fly and wanted to just die - it’s the most precious thing.
I hear blue jays pretending to be red tailed hawks all the time. It is so funny when they do that.
Where I live we get 8 month long winters so I go a very long time without hearing bird songs. During cold snaps, they are all hiding away from the cold. When it’s not lethally cold, they know predators are out hunting so they stay quiet. The only birds I hear are crows and ravens so I have grown used to their calls and now quite enjoy the sounds they make. I also tend to get seasonal depression in the spring so hearing the songs of the birds and watching them enjoy themselves helps a lot.
Here in Austin, a rain after a long hot spell often leads to being surrounded by bird song. It feels like joyous singing.
Anyone whose had a parrot knows when it's singing time, they're in a good mood.
The most underrated singing is definitely the mourning dove. The coo they do is so nostalgic. All of us always think it's an owl hooting. We have parents that are nesting with their 2 babies in the nest. They grow so fast and seeing how they look like their smiling brings me joy. I know we may never be trusted by them, but it's just wholesome and cool we have a bird family here depending on our home for protection
The mourning dove coo is the sound of my childhood summer 🥰
They are so commonly mistaken for owls down here! What I think is really fascinating is the high pitched twittering they make when they fly away from you. That's not a sound they make from their beaks- it's actually a sound that comes from their wings flapping!
I had no idea! Thank you.
We’ve had backyard chickens for two years and I have thought about their emotional range. I think they have anxiety when things aren’t happening the way it’s supposed to, and contentment when everything is the way it’s supposed to be.
We have an older rooster who has been chased around by our bigger younger rooster this year. Just today, we fenced off the beta rooster and the hens that used to be his flock and he was standing guard over them and finding food for them without the other rooster chasing him away and he puffed up his feathers and pecked my foot when I came near like he owned the place and I thought, “this is the happiest he’s been since the younger rooster grew bigger than him”
Are front yard chickens more expensive?
All my cats 🐈⬛ 🐈⬛ 🐈⬛ are woke up from this video 😂❤
The Blue Jay baby was so adorable 🐦
Oh my god! Wasn’t she? 🥰
It's fake.
I never really appreciated robin song until one Dawn two friends and I were sitting against a tree overlooking a lake as the whippoorwills were finishing and the robins beginning. One robin was singing in a tree near us, but when he flew to "our" tree, tho no birds' songs changed, being directly under him allowed us to hear the coordination of their symphony. The individual songs fit together like the different instruments in an Irish session, with a common core and individual variations. All three of us cried and went home and wrote poetry. ❤️🐦
I like the way she says "out".
I love the fact that juvenile birds learn to sing from adult tutors
We’ve got a ton of wild birds around because nobody within a mile or two uses pesticides. Lots of breeding pairs and nests. There was a pair of Northern Parula who sang in triumph when I put film on our windows; they “chased off” the “rival pair” that was trying to invade their territory! There’s a breeding pair of Carolina Wrens under our porch, we’ve got a pair of cardinals living in one of our trees, and there’s a pair of pileated woodpeckers way up high. We’ve also got a breeding pair of what I think are Barred Owls that nest somewhere nearby.
Not sure about wild birds but my wife and I own parrots and I can tell you for sure they do stuff for fun. They loved tossing things around and mimicking. For our birds, they sometimes find so much enjoyment in these. You can tell by the tone of their chirps and their body language
Ah, songbirds are so wonderful 🥹
Nothing more enjoyable than a Lesley video on a Sunday evening!
Awww, thank you so much 🥰🐦 I hope you have a wonderful new week ahead!
mitch - Seriously? What about watching your favorite birds in person out in their natural habitat?
@@jonhohensee3258 Uh, not much birds out on a Sunday evening. Think about it.
@@mitchmatthews6713 Why not? There are where I live. YOU think about it.
@@jonhohensee3258 Good for you, Karen! Sorry that I don't live where you do. Actually, I'm not.
Little Sparrow: I..i..i must sing 🎶
I'm sure they sing for fun and to sometimes just to show off! I've known pets of all sorts to show off and attract some attention to themselves at times. Birds are so awesome.
Birds can definitely sing for fun or because they're happy, in my backyard we have plenty of fruit bearing trees and feeders, and its quite amusing to see & hear them go crazy with their singing when they realize food is available. There is always an uptick in volume and frequency whenever we fill them up, especially if we haven't done so in a few days, and its similar with the dozen or so species we see visit us. The American goldfinchs and the Black-capped chickadees in peculiar are especially vocal when we refill the feeders.
Robin calls trigger all of the nearby robins. On another note, my budgies sing when they're happy. Birds smile with their eyes.
My parakeets would wake me up being loud and obnoxious until the day I woke up and found out all I had to do was say "shhhh" and whisper "plz be quiet " and they started to warble gently which they made a habit to welcome me when they heard me turn in my bed to wake up. They were some of the happiest birds I have ever seen .
I know for sure that when my budgies sings and clean their feathers they are happy and comfortable. 💓🐦😌💓
You THINK you know.
@@jonhohensee3258 You THINK you know 😏
@@umbrellacorp. I think I know WHAT?? What a ridiculous reply.
@@jonhohensee3258 clearly u dont know!🎉
@@braindent6464 Don't know what, silly?
A bird doesn't sing because it is happy...
It is happy because it sings.
That is a crack up !!! Ohhhh Ca-na-da !!!!
I do my best to not anthropomorphize, but to some degree there has to be some equivalent of joy with bird calls. Some years ago I had a very friendly rooster. He'd crow as usual as all roosters do, but whenever he noticed me come outside, he'd perform a special, higher-pitched crow in a way that I can only interpret as him being happy to see me
We so WUV our avian songsters! 🥰
"Babe wake up - new BirdNerd just dropped"
The male robin in our territory likes to sit on the pinnacle of the roof of the house outside my window, so I can watch him sing his little heart out well after sunset. I love it! Great video, thanks!
I live just south of Dayton, Ohio and as I was walking home from the store I heard a bird of prey calling. I looked up and there was a hawk circling around! Not sure why he or she was calling, but it was very special! I automatically thought of "the Hawk" from John Denver's "The Eagle and the Hawk". If you've never heard it, I suggest you hear the version that's from "An Evening with John Denver" (it's better than the original, believe it or not).
Robins have such a sweet voice, how nice that he sings on top of your house for you.
I'll have to look up that song, don't believe I heard it before. I heard a couple of Osprey up in the sky yesterday. In Spring, when Hawks are calling, it's usually a part of courtship with their mate or for finding one. ☺ Thank you for watching, Have a great night!
John Denver is THE best. :)
We have a rescue brown eared bulbul and she has different calls and songs depending on her mood. She (we think she's female) has a greeting song, songs that she learned from different bird species, scared sounds, the sounds she makes while moving around, annoyed, fight calls with other birds, various happy sounds and she even turned her name into a song!
Her sense of observation is off the charts as well. She knows when we are leaving the house just by how I move around and she gets angry, but if we say 'Let's go!', then she gets happy again since she's coming with us outside. Her non verbal communication is incredible to observe as well. We know when she wants attention, wants to play or wants to eat a certain food.
In the spring, lots of male bulbuls in the area would try to flirt with her. Now that it's summer here, the wild couples are telling her to get off their territory when we're walking outside.
Anyways, yes, they sing for fun, and they sing more when in a good mood. On cloudy days she's more quiet, sunny days she's more excited and sings more.
What do you call her?
I'm not sure I'll understand it in English.
banbaji - You don't have a brown-eared bulbul.
SO GLAD TO SEE YOUR VIDEOS. I LIVE IN A MOBILE HOUSE. RIGHT IN MY FRONT YARD I HAVE A BIRD BATH. I AM VERY DISABLED, BUT EVERY MORNING I FEED MY FAMILY BIRDS, CHIPMUNKS, SQUIRRELS ❤❤. I HAVE AN ENCLOSED PORCH, THE OTHER DAY SPORROWS WERE GATHERING THINGS TO MAKE A NEST. I ENJOY ALL THE ACTIVITIES 😂😂. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS. GOD BLESS AND TAKE CARE.
It seems like the question 'Does singing make a bird happy / is singing a pleasurable activity?' is different from 'Is singing an expression of happiness?' happiness meaning 'everything is okay'.
extremely blessed video
Down here in Australia we have a great number of birds that seem to really love singing their songs, most especially my favourite the Magpie, they warble like a church organ! Another of my favourites is the grey Butcherbird, they get so caught up in their singing that they nearly topple our of their perch!
Robins are the sound of a spring morning in my area! When there isn't lawnmowers going, anyway.
"What could be better than turning your body into a musical instrument?"

I love this quote. Thank you for sharing it :)
I love that you even think of that how the bird feel 🥲🥲
Thank you so much
Oh they’re so pretty. Go them.
My favorite time of day, is when the sun is coming up, out on my lanai, with coffee in hand, in order to hear all the lovely bird songs! I love to think that the birds are as happy to sing as I am to hear them! ❤️ Thank you Leslie!
You don't drink coffee.
I enjoy listening. No drugs required. I enjoy your videos too. Thanks.
Well hanging my laundry out after a long winter sure had them sounding glorious it was non stop even the swish of the water in my bucket while rinsing impressed them
Leslie! Maybe I'm a bit biased but I share my life with 6 conure parrots which includes a mom and 4 of her babies.. I've had mom since she was just over a month out of the egg and she has been raised on all sorts of genres of human music. She will be 7 this fall and I have always wished there was a way I could document and share her love of music with science! She reacts "appropriately" to the emotional tonality of different songs and while I admit this is entirely anthropomorphic of me to say, as her chosen "mate", I think I know her well enough to say she definitely enjoys music.. she gets excited and happy with feel good songs, melancholic and nostalgic with sad songs, and absolutely ready to mess stuff up when she hears rap or punk rock songs (My favorite to witness)!!
True she could be mimicking my reactions but in that last category, she got amped up without seeing my reaction.. it was purely her interpretation of what she was hearing! I think we sometimes tend to over correct for anthropomorphic tendencies and with justification... But in being cautious we miss the obvious joy in the animals we share this amazing world with! ❤
Some beautiful birds ...I miss my Juncos they are one of my favorites...my God giving drugs to birds what a crazy time.....I have a few Tit-Mouse and have always loved them ...after years they have gotten confident enough to come to my sliding door ....I put peanuts out the door and they are picking up the peanut and flying away...sometimes the peanut is so heavy they can barely get airborne...thanks for always making these videos ...love to you guys
I hear you Russ, I could never do such a thing to an animal.
Aww, you are so lucky to have titmice, they are such characters and so beautiful. Too funny about them trying to ones that are too heavy, hahaha. I saw a chickadee do that today, it kept falling out of her beak but she'd keep stopping to pick it up. Last I saw she seemed to fly off with the whole thing. lol. They are such sweethearts. Thank you for taking the time to watch the video, always appreciated, and much love to you and your wife...and the birds and other critters 🐦💜💙🥰
They are worshiping their Creator ❤
YES BIRDS SING WHEN HAPPY TOO
They make me happy when I hear them sing, especially in the early morning.
I have 4 canaries and two of them are males. They tend to sing a warbling melody. It’s so cute and they sing facing us after we give them a snack 🥰
I know I feel a lot happier when I go I outside and hear them singing!! When I Don’t hear the birdies singing and “talking” in my backyard, It’s Depressing!! I truly worry about the bird population. Especially, song birds! In Florida, we have so many predators, especially Outside cats. My neighbor let’s her cats out! I had 8 cardinals and now I only see 5. I am hoping the other 3 found their new “home”?! One black bird missing his foot. A blue jay one leg pulled backwards. It finally Fell off 2 weeks later. Now, he has a hard time balancing when pecking at a peanut (even without a shell). He finally trusts me to get close enough so I can feed live meal worms! I make sure he gets 5-12 a day. I don’t even want to leave the house. I am afraid he’ll starve?! The other birds don’t let him eat. One pecked his head so hard, he screamed 😢. I HATE People who are ignorant enough to let their cats Outside!! 😖
Well if they are not happy it sure makes us happy to hear them😊
You said it! :D
That's one of the main reasons I think they're happy -- because of the joy they give us when we hear them.
@@Andijt Well that would be nice but I'm not sure there's a way for them to know whether we enjoy it or not
@@millicentwilson9567 That's not what I'm saying. I mean we feel their joy.
@@Andijt oh
They're singing happy songs too their creator ❤
As a sax player I can absolutely attest that that is pure joy you hear from songs.
I've had some wild birds playfully mimic me when I whistle, and then we go back and forth for a while. Pure joy
I've recorded the songs of my garden robin, blackbird, sparrows and starlings, also the lovely crow, I treasure these recordings which I will always associate with my home. We're so lucky in London as generally people love birds and the wildlife, I love pigeons too and the soothing purry sound they make. Birds are so beautiful and precious, it is hard financially to keep buying food for them but the pleasure they give me is a good investment for my wellbeing and mental health. I also feed squirrels and the neighbourhood foxes and any strays that turn up, we all share this planet.
because flying is so awesome
Such a cheerful video! I do hope the birds get as much enjoyment from their songs as we do. Last week I was visiting Galway, Ireland, as I walked down a side street I heard an utterly enchanting birdsong. I stopped, mesmerized. Then I noticed that the busy looking business man across the street also stopped in his tracks! Amazing! I wish I knew what bird it was that made our day
😊
the way they scream in my yard when there is a hawk in the area tells me not always.
Science confirms what our spirits could never question! A bird sings and we can't help but smile. In that sweet fleeting moment, without language, religion or any scientific study, we share with the song bird the simple joy of being life. There is no issue here.
Yeah I understand why you would have a bad feeling about people injecting birds with anything! Unnecessary! Great video Lesley!
I think some of my neighborhood birds are entertainers. I say "my" because we sometimes interact. They like to get my attention for blueberries and peanuts, and seem to give a little more output for expressed adulation. Ditch your love for loud motors and let birds express their way into your hearts. You'll fall in love with nature and God, and rid yourself of toxic noise.
Wow this whole time I thought the robins call was a mocking bird. So the robin too also sings all night spring and summer if they didn’t mate
Mystery is also important. The wonderful mystique of birds! Chemicals indeed. Fentanyl. To find out if the bird sings because it’s happy?! Don’t we?! I love and appreciate your channel!
just like birds have a song our mothers instinctively sang us lullabies, these were the first human melodies . . .
I always loved hearing the Black Capped Chickadee in the morning. It's so calming and soothing to wake up to.
I recently moved to the mid-west from the west coast, and it's so weird to hear the Black-capped Chikadee songs are different. I keep waiting for the third note and it never happens 😅
Lesley, as a lifelong birder and someone who leans more on the ornithilogical side, I really enjoy your videsa and the perspective you bring. It's interesting to see Blue Jays singing the same garbled song that Steller's Jays do. They areally are close relatives.
I sing when I'm happy. Also I whistle lots.
Whoever injects innocent animals with fentanyl needs to be arrested
🧐?
While the practice seems ethically questionable, if it was done at a legit institution, and assuming the controlled substances were properly handled, what laws were broken? You can't arrest people just because you don't approve of what they're doing. If this upsets you, there's an awful lot you need to educate yourself about regarding the treatment of dogs in medical studies. That will definitely anger you.
@@ChefMimsy
Cruelty to animals.
@@ChefMimsy
I know all about the horrific abuse these sociopaths heap on non-humans and humans alike.
I agree! Alot of these birds are also endangered.
As a bird, this is true
I'm from the UK and it's lovely to hear/see some birds we don't have here, I always like to remind myself we evolved alongside birds so our ancient ancestors would have heard bird songs throughout their days too 🥰
Our ancient ancestors didn't have ears.
Songs of nature
I haven't watched this yet, I just got the notification for it. But just from the title, I 100% do believe America Goldfinches sing because they are happy. I'll watch this alittle later tonight. But at this moment I'm listening to about 50 Goldfinches tweeting away in the trees and at the feeder 😂❤
Goldfinches are sooo wonderful. I love their sweet little songs
I agree! Goldfinches love hot summer days.
If I had the voice of a bird, I'd probably sing for fun too... Birds have very unique "voices" if you think about it
It warms my soul to hear those first sweet songs heavy on the dying chill of an early spring morning.
I know that spring is on its way and it makes me happy.
2:04 - Carolina Chickadee Talking
I believe they are full of joy when they sing and are worshipping the LORD.
The only think I know is that I feel happy when I hear birds sing. Such a gift.
Hard to tell what's coming from this video & what's coming from the Oaks around my porch 😊 All of it is lovely!
Thanks Lesley! Get high=make music=feel good... that sounds right to me.
