about

‘Bird songs’ was originally produced in 2011 as a ‘local’ (around Melbourne, Australia) depiction of our avain inhabitants for a momento available from our cities botanic gardens shop.

Australian birds and animals are famous the world over for their unique and diverse character; the kookaburra laughs, parrots talk, the lyrebird's mimicry. Some of the species you hear around Melbourne
include kingfishers, perching birds, parrots, waders and gulls, doves and pigeons. Individual birds include the magpie, raven, wrens, kookaburra, grey shrike thrush, currawong, wattle bird, bell birds, owl, lyrebird, whistlers, whip bird, rosella, galah and cockatoos.

The calls have been recorded in the bird's own environments - their actual habitats, so we hear the sounds of water, wind, frogs, crickets and sea, all contributing to the sense of place. The work is laid out as a pre-dawn through to dusk and evening trip; we move from a wildlife sanctuary to sea-sides, to eucalypt and rain forests, open farm land and woodlands. There is a little special 'linking' music acting as scene changer - and adding a light people presence.

Come on a trip into special bird environments.
