Can you hear them?
As we travel through the bush, stop, listen, they’re up there.
Bell birds.
The tinkling is unique.
It’s their way of communicating and what a magical sound it is.
There’s silence among us, we strain to hear,
Through the wind moving the leaves, the sway of the branches
The silence is broken by the twinkling
At first above us then from every direction
We are mesmerised,
We look at each other, our grins huge
Wow, who’d have expected such a melodious ringing?
I’ve carried them with me,
As I move through every forest,
I long for the uplifting bells to come tinkling through the canopy.

You have taken a very welcome, different tangent on this photo.
Thanks Sadje I remember as kids we’d travel to visit relatives and at one point if the journey my parents would tell us to listen for the bell birds.
Cool. First I’ve heard of them.
I had to look them up. Lovely little birds.
Wow, I thought at first this was to be a fairy tale. Bell birds. Wow
They are truly amazing.
Yea. Indeed. Thank you for widening my knowledge base 🙂
