The sound of loud chirping echoed through the grasslands as many of the herbivore herds were out enjoying the warm weather that had finally come to the island and the leftovers of winter now diminished to a few patches of muddy snow. With that came the many sounds of spring and not your normal sounds of leaves and branches cracking but the plentiful songs that came from all over the island with each dinosaur having their own sound or some who out right sung to their hearts content. More dinosaurs were willing to participate then others while some were learning to find their voices along with their reactions to the many new sounds and songs.

The first of many was the large styracosaurus herds that gathered to stomp to the sound and bellow of their loud rumbling songs for spring, many knew this gathering well while newbies and others were coming for the first time and today was a group of three who were on their way to the herd gathering and trying to practice their songs along the way and learn how to move to the beat of spring with Descole leading the small herd of three shaking his head in annoyance at all the loud noise. Behind him were two smaller styracosaurus’ s by the name of Poltergiest and Zombie.

“ I think Descole is going to go mad with all the noise, I don’t think he’s ever been excited for spring time” Poltergiest said letting out a yawn as he swayed to the off distant calls from the large gathering of the styracosaurus herd, in which he received a quick stern look which made Zombie give off a quiet laugh “careful he will have your tongue for that, besides maybe the old guy has a good song and enjoys the movement you never know” ,They had been traveling for awhile now and the trio would test out bellows and stomp like patterns while they walked towards herd grasslands trying to stay in tune with the bellows they could make off in the distance. Zombie let out a loud bellow that rumbled through the area around them in which Poltergiest trotted up to join in on the music like rumble, Descole keeping quiet but swaying his head to their noise.

It seemed like the trio was getting into the grove if spring even if their sounds weren’t fine tuned as others along with Descole just moving to the bellows from Poltergiest and Zombie as the two continued to let out happy bellows and clacking their beaks, the more they made noise the closer they got and the louder the herd was getting. Coming to the end of the trail they spotted the grasslands with the vast amount of crests and bellowing from the herd who all noticed their arrival, Zombie shaking his crest so his horns clacked together and moved towards to herd and not far behind him was Poltergeist who stomped his feet to the beat of the others, they had finally made it and now it was really time to show off and enjoy the sound. While the two joined with a group of other styracosaurus , Descole followed and snorted listening to everyone in which he had his own way to express the sound of spring through knocking his frontal horn on boulders and rocks that lined the ground it wasn’t loud but it was different and made a unique sound, and that was the beauty of the sound of spring everyone had their own way of expressing it.

There were thousands of styracosaurs of all ages ranging from young hatchlings to old adults who moved to the noise slowly but still joined in and Descole found himself tending his way over there instead of being near the younger herd members who were much louder. Poltergiest and Zombie had no issue being near them as the two stomped their feet up and down making loud thundering booms that rippled across the ground making pebbles and stones rise and fall. Eventually it was time to use their crests to create an even more unique sound making the sound of spring come full circle.

“Come here Poltergiest lets lock horns I bet it would make an even better sound” Zombie snorted turning towards him as the black and purple scaled sty nodded and turned towards him with Zombie giving a que “ Ready to make some real sounds for the coming of spring” his feathers ruffled in excitement. 

“Ready! Let’s see how it sounds” Poltergiest said as he rushed forwards towards Zombie, the two interlocked their upper crest horns which made an interesting sound as they stopped listening to it before backing up, the rest of the herd bellowing as the two joined in again letting out loud rumbling bellows deep from with in, the weather was nice and the two were learning how to move and join in on the sounds of the arrival of spring on the island. Off to the side Descole was enjoying the sounds as he laid down with older members of the herd but he kept quiet just pawing the ground in front of him and swaying his head back and forth his scruffy like feathers shaking as he did. The old sty had heard the sound of spring and the many ways in which each dinosaur reacted to the sounds that rang around the island.

“So the sounds of spring continue and get louder each year with the herd it seems” he said watching Poltergeist and Zombie before giving a slight chuckle. He was more of a quiet type to just enjoy the movement and sounds that others created since he didn’t think he had anything worth sharing and being much older he had done his fair share of sounds over the years. So Descole stuck with the elders who also would let out some noise but were content on just listening and enjoying the sounds of spring that came with it as it chased away the winter and cold.

Zombie and Poltergiest eventually made their way towards Descole and laid down near him before both letting out a sigh as more styracosaurs arrived to join in on the celebration, they had sung and moved their hearts out for the time being and some rest was needed especially after their traveling, it was time to enjoy everyone else.

“Well im glad we ended up heading here to join in on the sound of spring, it’s always such a fun experience even if the old guy never joins in and only sits around” Zombie said looking at Descole who snorted before laying his head down in the grass. 

“Oh leave Descole alone he enjoys it and sways his head to everyone else, but I feel like we will need to take a trip to the river. All that bellowing and movement has got me tired” Poltergiest said before shaking his crest and looking at the other two. The trio agreed to a good trip to the river well, still continuing to enjoy spring around them, and with that they stood up and headed down passing by the more sound that kept growing and growing the closer they got to the river, what a way to celebrate the coming of spring. Descole in the front and the two behind him, swaying their heads a bit.
