Dream bird within wood stove

Hi Jeff,

Enjoyed your piece, thanks :-).

Nice build up of tension and chords especially when you get
to about 2 minutes into the piece, with those very high
chords
and very low ones at the same time.

Sort of more tension the further the notes are away from
each other in pitch.

Then I like those sliding crunchy chords coming down after
that.

Is it some kind of non octave scale (a kind of reasonably
likely
guess knowing you)? What's the tuning?

I think it perfectly expresses the idea of a free
bird within a wood stove.

Incidentally one of the places I lived had a kind of heater
come radiator in the corner with a vent to the outside,
and regularly every year in the winter a little bird would
take up residence in it - I used to hear it pecking away
inside. It was a blue tit - a bird we get here in the UK,
that eats nuts hanging upside down from the bird feeders and
you often see them in gardens, though it is a woodland bird
really I suppose as you often hear them in woods.

I don't know if it was the same one that always inhabited my
radiator every winter, - or if perhaps they passed
the tradition on from one generation to anohter (being
rather
short lived birds I believe).

What was the bird you found called? Since i don't know the
US ones of course.
