I was sitting out on the patio today, listening to the birds and the wind in the trees. I remembered reading somewhere that there is a specific word for the sound of the wind in the trees. I couldn't remember what it was, so I Googled it and ended up doing this page for my journal :-)

The word is Psithurism -- pronounced zith-err-ism. It's one of my favorite sounds :-)
