Streaming from an urban lake in amiskwacîwâskahikan / Edmonton, Métis Nation of Alberta Region 4. Sounds of recently returned geese and ducks splashing in the ice and water, pileated and downy woodpeckers, robins, waxwings and chickadees in the forest behind, and possibly a splash from muskrats and warbles of frogs. Streamed by Sharpe & MacDonald.
Listening to the land supports land acknowledgement – first of the Indigenous peoples who have lived and passed through here since long before colonial settlement, and second of the other lifeforms in this place. We’re streaming from Amiskwacî Wâskahikan (Beaver Hills House in Cree, so-called Edmonton).
