This was a beautiful, though sad, movie, mostly filmed in the Metaline Falls area in Pend Oreille Co., some in other NE counties and Idaho. I think it was Netflix where we watched it, wishing we'd seen it in a theater. Beautiful scenery, very touching story. And yes, there was bird song!

I haven't seen any threads in the past few months about t<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">he Oscar nominated movie, “Train Dreams”. It is filmed mostly in Washington and is filled with extended moments of birdsong from recognizable PNW bird species. A distinct Pileated Woodpecker as the movie begins, later, several long calls of Swainson's thrush and Varied Thrush after that. I'm sure there are more and I intend to watch it again just to see how many more I missed. The majority of this film is shot in the PNW forest and portrays the turn of the century lumber industry, with unflinching honesty. Because this</span><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> movie is very deliberate, slow and quiet, the bird song is clearer than usually is heard in movies. I enjoyed how deeply this movie depicts the quietness of being in nature, and the birds were an extra treat!</span>
