Today’s noticing requires your imagination. It’s an auditory noticing.
If you sit in what’s called the Vale of Cashmere in Prospect Park, a favorite place for bird watchers, you can hear a symphony of bird calls. So, imagine you are sitting comfortably on a park bench. You will hear the chirp of sparrows, the caw of blue jays, the quick three-toned sound of cardinals, and my favorite, the coo of the morning doves, along with others I can’t identify.
I didn’t hear a swan but I love this photo and if you walk over to the lake, you can see them there.
