Song-wing

The photographs were taken on May 5th at Sipoonkorpi.

Several mornings this week when I have gone to fetch the newspaper, there has been a thrush nightingale (Luscinia luscinia) in the garden, singing loudly. A couple of times I have got to 2-3 meter distance of the bird before it has changed location. Spring is quite advanced, Syringa is already in bloom.

(Posting title is from the poem The Song of the Nightingale is Like the Scent of Syringa by Mina Loy.)
