Maine Birdcalls will introduce each common Maine bird and display its birdcalls gently, while soothing music plays in the background. This should inspire calm and learning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Inspiration<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Actually, the idea is generally inspired by the beginning of the movie \u201cThe Big Year\u201d which centers around the yearly birding competition in North America. In the introduction of the movie, the main character is listening to a podcast of bird calls, and I think about it a lot!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Big_Year\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/The_Big_Year<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt; Script<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Good morning listeners, today we are going to listen to the beautiful calls of Maine\u2019s native birds. I will introduce each bird before its call plays, and let the songs of these birds guide you to peacefulness.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Black-Capped Chickadee**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Northern Cardinal**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013American Robin<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013American Crow<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Tufted Titmouse**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Dark-Eyed Junco**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Cedar Waxwing**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Bohemian Waxwing<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Blue Jay<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013American Gold Finch**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013House Sparrow**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013House Finch**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Purple Finch**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Mourning Dove<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Rock Pigeon<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Great Blue Heron**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Great Egret**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Snowy Egret**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Nighthawk**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Whip-poor-will**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Barred Owl<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Nightjar**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Bald Eagle<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Red-tailed hawk<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013Turkey vulture<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u2013American Woodcock**<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(** most likely to be used)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">(Fit in as many as you can!)<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I have many recordings of birdcalls from identifying birds, so I will likely use what I can find in those recordings!
