Janelle Nadeau's Love for the Harp was a Joy to behold

Janelle gave us more than a concert yesterday -- she gave us the joy of the harp that we can now carry with us through our remaining days.
I would like to share some of her music with you.

Janelle's Bio

Birds of the Arctic

Three of us went on a virtual trip to above the Arctic Circle and learned some amazing facts that we will never forget.
We started "ooooo-ing" and "aaaaw-ing" the minute we were introduced to the Ivory Gull.

Our incredible journey was with a team from the Cornell Lab of Ornithology to collect sound recordings in the Canadian High Arctic.

Our sincere thanks to the Cornell Lab of Ornithology for making this video available through Youtube. Many of us only dreamed of going to the Canadian High Arctic but never made it before the health issues of aging made travel impossible. Your videos make a few dreams come true.
Our itinerary for our trip can be found here: Birding in the Arctic
