I was up way before dawn this morning. As I was listening to some music on my computer (Smetana's Vltava and Vaughan Williams' Fantasia, to see why they confuse me so) and I heard the melodious song of the wood thrush, well before light. Ah, the pre-dawn chorus... I took a video, which doesn't look like much, but gives you an idea of what normally wakes me up. I'll see if I can put it on here.
