The Council of Bliss

Wake up to the beautiful serenade of spring in Chapel Hill, NC with the melodic singing of the Northern Cardinal. The cardinal's song is a signature sound of spring in this area, and it's sure to transport you to a different place and time. The occasional call of a Gray Catbird adds a lovely contrast to the melody of the cardinal. Whether you're a nature lover or just looking for a moment of peace and tranquility, this episode is for you.
