About an hour’s drive west of Calgary, Alberta in the foothills and front ranges of the Canadian Rocky Mountains is an area known as Kananaskis Country.Within this nearly 1 million acres of land are towering mountains, alpine meadows, glaciers, forests, lakes, wetlands, grasslands, and thickets. Over 130 species of birds nest in Kananaskis Country, including many songbirds.I’ve felt a draw to return to this place ever since I first camped here when I was 13.The imagery of the mountains, sky, and forests have never left me. But I didn’t remember much about how it sounded.Now, 30 years after I first visited Kananaskis Country, I’m back once again, this time with some field recorders and the skills and knowledge to help me identify the birdsongs I hear.CreditsSongbirding: Kananaskis Country is a Songbirding Studios production.Recorded, engineered, narrated and created by Rob Porter.The Songbirding cover art (Townsend's Warbler) is by Lauren Helton: https://tinylongwing.carbonmade.com/projects/5344062Creative Commons music is from Bluedot Sessions.Learn how to support the show at https://songbirding.com/support
