They covered ground quickly. Sunset was approaching. Gradually they were climbing in height. A new mountain was ahead. Surprisingly, though the path was getting steeper, Aaron hardly felt the difference except for a few really tough places.

A lot of birds were around them singing away. This puzzled Aaron. These birds should be nesting for the night, but~t they were acting as if it were morning time. And such sounds and melodies going back and forth! Beautiful new songs and delightful sounds he'd never heard before. Some sounds reminded him of his visit to a big city zoo.

"These are songs from a few of the animals who live around and on this mountain. For they too have sounds to share with others. Some tell stories. Others are a way of talking with the rest of the beasts "and creatures. And mostly it's a form of pleasure for them whether alone or along with the others."
