About this episode
This episode explores the Wood Thrush and its habitat in North America's forests and its migration to Central America.
The fluting song of the Wood Thrush is an ethereal sound of summer in North America. During the breeding season, these robin-sized songsters serenade deciduous forests of the eastern U.S. and Canada. Each fall, they migrate to rainforests from southern Mexico to Panama where they call to each other
