The Stories of the Birds

Since childhood, I have loved spending time in the forest. If not there, then the mountains or hills always called to me, but the forest holds a special kind of magic. The rustling leaves, the dappled sunlight filtering through the canopy, and the symphony of birdsong create an enchanting atmosphere.

Near where I grew up, there was an ancient fortress ruin called Wulp. The walls were barely intact, yet you could still discern different rooms and a kind of square in the middle with an old, sealed well. This place, with its rich history and quiet solitude, became a canvas for my imagination.

In the forest, my imagination could run free. The towering trees and whispering winds seemed to hold countless secrets and untold stories. I often found myself wondering about the lives that had passed through the fortress and the tales the ancient stones could tell.

Even today, whenever I venture into the woods and hear the birds singing, I am transported back to those childhood days. I always find myself wondering: What stories are the birds telling us? What things have they seen? What do they think about us? Each chirp and melody seems to carry a fragment of the forest’s ancient lore, a piece of a story waiting to be discovered.

Good morning, friends. Let's listen to the stories the birds have to share.
