Bird Songs of Alaska by Leonard Peyton is a beautiful album that showcases the diverse birdlife of Alaska. The album features 15 tracks, each of which is dedicated to a different bird species found in Alaska. The songs are recorded in high quality, and the sound of each bird is crystal clear.
The album begins with the song of the Bald Eagle, which is a majestic bird of prey found in Alaska. The album then moves on to other birds such as the Arctic Tern, the Willow Ptarmigan, and the Northern Goshawk. Each song is unique and captures the essence of the bird it represents.
One of the standout tracks on the album is the song of the Sandhill Crane. The haunting melody of the crane is beautifully captured, and the listener can almost feel the bird's presence. Another notable track is the song of the Common Loon, which is a haunting and eerie sound that is synonymous with the Alaskan wilderness.
