Bird & Forest Sounds

Birdsong is the rare sound that wakes a room up gently instead of snapping it awake. A soft forest chorus is made for slow mornings, focused work, and reading with the window open. This one streams free, right here on this page.

Birds & Forest

Press play — this one's on us. It loops continuously, with no seam.

What it sounds like

A light morning chorus — birds calling softly from the trees, with forest air underneath. Nothing squawks, nothing startles; it sounds like standing at the edge of a wood while the day gets going.

In the app you'll find more of the flock: two further Birds variations and Birds by Stream, which sets the chorus beside flowing water. Between them you can dial in anything from dawn stillness to full morning.

When to reach for it

Gentle wake-ups

Birdsong raises the energy of a room without a jolt. Play it as you get ready, and let the morning arrive gradually.

Focused work and study

A soft chorus masks keyboard clatter and hallway noise while keeping the room feeling open and bright — a good daytime alternative to rain.

Reading and journaling

Birds make a room feel like a porch. Keep the volume low and the pages will turn themselves.

Winding down a busy head

Not just for mornings — a quiet chorus can soften the transition from work mode to evening, especially paired with a short breathing session.

Mix it your way

Birds sit best on top of a steady base. Try them over River for a creekside walk, or keep them solo for a bright, open room. In the mixer, lower the birds a notch if the chorus feels busy — it should feel like scenery, not conversation.
