Summer in Southern Ontario

It's fascinating how summertime in Ontario buzzes and breathes. The grasshoppers and cicadas have this constant song they sing through night and day. Not only do the bugs sing, but the animals do too. In the day there's birdsong and the occasional chirp of a chipmunk. At night, the sound of turtles and the croak of the frog. Nature is always saying something- whether rain or shine, summer or winter, the Land has a song she sings and it changes throughout the seasons.
