Lazy Summer Afternoon Ambience | 8 hrs Gentle River and Bird Sounds for Relaxation

🦉📖 . . .The day stretches out before you, blissfully empty of plans. Sitting at home isn’t an option on a day as beautiful as today, so you cycle slowly down the bike path towards the river, letting the fragrant air caress your face as you ride. You stop at a farm stand on your way; peaches are in season. When you get to your favorite spot on the river you walk your bike across the grass and spread out your picnic blanket in the dappled shade beneath some big leafy trees. The little river makes a pleasant burbling sound as it rolls along beside where you’re sitting; when you get close to it, you can feel a coolness radiating off the water into the summer air. On the hills in the distance, a windmill lazily rotates against the blue of the sky. You can just see a little herd of sheep lolling in the shade beneath a large tree, leisurely waiting for the heat of the day to pass. No one has any reason to hurry today. You slice up one of the peaches you bought—sweet and juicy—and gaze out at the scene before you: the trees, the flowers, the butterflies, the little bridge that casts a cool, dark shadow on the rippling water beneath. You open your book but the a languorous feeling overtakes you. You close your eyes and feel the warmth of the sun on your face, and let the sound of the singing birds above your head wash over you. When you open your eyes again, a brightly colored hot air balloon has drifted into view above the hill. You’re glad you remembered to bring your camera with you. This is a moment you will want to remember. . . 🦉👋 Hello! I hope you enjoyed your afternoon down by the river. Do you like this type of video?

Wow. I think this is the best ambience you've ever made ! I could easily feel like I'm in the Shire... The gentle movement of the water, the leaves, and even the grass !! This is stunning. Thank you so much !

This looks like a painting and photograph all at once! 😍

My childhood dream has finally come true. I've stepped into the world of Christopher Robin and the 100 Acre Wood. And what look, just in time for a picnic with Pooh, Piglet, Eeyore, Kanga, Roo and Tigger too. 🍯

I spent a lot of summer days as a kid just roaming around outside in the green countryside around my house. I channeled my best 🎨 Bob Ross to try and capture that lazy summer day feeling in this video. I hope it reminds you of happy summer memories too.

I can feel the peach juices running down my arm and getting sticky from it. I'll probably have to go for a little wade into the stream to wash it off and cool down.. How blissful!

This is fabulous, I’m going to come back to this one in the dead of winter to help me feel summery again 🌼☀️

Sometimes it's nice to get away from the coffee shops and the rainy days and follow the sound of the breeze and the birds to a warm and sunny, blissful place outdoors. Lying on the grass under big sky, watching clouds, breathing the breath of fresh wildflowers, and daydreaming. So Loving this.

This is complete and utter bliss! Love the shadows on the blanket and how smoothly you animated the grass. Wonderful work, CBN!

I grew up in the countryside in a house that used to be a water mill, so this sound, especially with the stream, reminds me of summer break when I was a kid! So many great memories, thank you <3

Really living out my cottagecore fantasy with this one 🤩🤩

My granny has a house in the country and this gives me memories of it!! You deserve lots of love for the effort and dedication with your work! Health and love for everyone! Greetings from Spain 🇪🇸 💟

I'm so glad I searched and found this video. My nearly 2 month old baby girl had terrible colic. These seems to soothe her and keep her calm. I'm also playing fire crackling sounds on her sound machine at the same time. So, she's really in her own summertime paradise right now. It's the quietest she's been this whole time. This ambient video is really a life saver.

This has become the soundtrack to my work day. Sometimes, I'll stop what I'm doing and take a few minutes to close my eyes, listen, and breathe.

I love this. The best part is the lack of really hot temperature. If summer was as comfortable as this video, I would enjoy its return every year

In this scene you've captured the imagination of the 100 Acre Wood, the stillness of Anne of Green Gables, the wonder of the Wizard of Oz, and the romance within the forest of Briar Rose. For that and much more, I say Thank you. 🍯💗🤗🌹🦁

I'd LOVE to see a behind the scenes of what goes into making an ambience! These are amazing and have rocked me to sleep more nights than I can count 🧡

I've used this vid dozens of times for studying and I just noticed the details at the beginning, the animation (or film?) of biking down the path, and how you can actually hear the sound of the bicycle as you approach the picnic spot and you can hear someone shaking out the picnic blanket. So well done!
