Dear Ones,

I was walking in the Santa Monica Mountains in early June 2016, and I came across a raven and a songbird improvising a duet. The raven provided a percussion beat, and a few songbirds provided the melody.

As you may know, ravens can make many different sounds; this raven gave a virtuoso performance, and the songbird’s sound was quite beautiful as well. Here’s the video, and beneath it is the sound track of the full song.

There is a Summary after the video; but as there are no words in the video, the Summary contains only a soundtrack.
