A Soothing Bedtime Story: The Journey of a Young Swallow

Join me, as we embark on a breathtaking journey in tonight's sleep story. We'll follow the awe-inspiring migration of a young swallow from the chilly Northern Hemisphere to the warm Southern Hemisphere-a staggering journey covering over 6,000 miles. Tonight marks the start of our new series on migration, and I invite you to fly alongside our feathered protagonist on her very first migration... 😴

I am a grandmother who looks forward to snuggling into my bed at night to listen to your stories. ❤

[@elliemae1942]

Just a suggestion, but I’d love a vineyard/wine/grape tasting story? 🍷

[@eldritchpancakes]

Ooh, I second that. Good idea.

[@LilyOscar333]

Me too 🍷🍷🍷

[@LoobeyLoo]

What a beautiful story. The swallows have just started to arrive in the UK. Every time i see one i will think of this story and the amazing journey they have made to be here. 🙏🏻

[@christierichardson2841]

There you go, kicking all other storytellers butts again. 😂 This story was a lot more relaxing and beautiful than I could have imagined. You spoke of the swallow as if you knew them personally ❤. Your slow and steady voice is so gentle as it takes us into your story and our dreams. Thank you so much.

[@jenniferpiercy8305]

Hey there! To whoever is reading this, whether we ever cross paths or not, I genuinely wish you find joy in your journey. Embrace today; it holds endless possibilities! 😊

[@jaquelinerondel4877]

And same to you

[@nancyliawoods]

This story and series will be great I just know it!! Goodnight sleepy friends 😴

[@kamillamikkelsen4698]

I really want to enjoy your videos but you make me fall asleep in 5-10 min No one else's voice can do that And it makes me happy

[@jgriffin1792]

Birds of a feather flock together in this beautifully told story. Beautiful music score.❤❤❤❤❤

[@krismarsh6978]

I had a conflict today and tonight I thought, I want to feel safe, I'll listen to Stephen.

[@BB-nr3sm]

I am so grateful for your help in feeling safe at night. It is so important for sleep. I may be in the minority, but my favorite of your stories is Sleepy Abbey, and I would love to hear more about the Duvet family.

[@christierichardson2841]

That's one of my favorites too.

[@user-mi6bb2ky4c]

As an avid birdwatcher, I am delighted to hear a story of migration! I tried to listen last night but didn't even make it through the relaxation session before falling asleep. I will try again tonight. Thank you so much, Stephen.

[@salllystone9719]

Wow, simply amazing. What a beautiful journey alonh with the swalliws. I am speechless, but definitely boned up on my African geography.. Fying gracefully through the wast and diversified landscapes was breathtaking. Throughout the flight I pictured the southern coast of California particularly San Juan Capistrano where the swallos migrate to and fro every year like clockwork. People come from all over the world to view them. Their fortitude and courageousness is totally Miraculous. Thanks for the restful trip and memories.

[@reneeflanders192]

Dear Stephen, as I listened last night to this story, tears welled in my eyes and fell down my cheeks. The little swallow so well represented the majesty and miracle of nature. Thank you.

[@keiths8370]

Yes. Me too I'm a granny and was so overwhelmed with this beautiful story. My heart was lifted as I finally dropped off at the end of the journey in cape town.. My beautiful country

[@user-ku8nx4pu5h]

I love your promos,,the ones with Timmy are so adorable, and I really enjoy your sleep stories 💤😴

[@JuneWatson-pm9ej]

One of many good reasons why we should be taking care of the environment, more stories like this please ❤

[@beckypadgett9672]

What a great idea for a new series! Can’t wait to hear this one.

[@ashleypresley]

I love the real life stories of Ireland ❤ especially the driving one

[@katherinechristensen1871]

Dear Stephen. Thank you for your beautiful stories. In answer to s previously asked question, for me personally, the stories that are about anything that doesn't involve my participation are always so very welcome and work like magic. Stories where you take me places personally often trigger my severe PTSD. Just wanted to make you aware. You are such a special person in my life. Bless you.

[@acotgw]

Thanks for telling us stories. I prefer rain sounds without music but listen to all of them.

[@joyhursey1480]

I love relaxing to all your wonderful stories, you have a lovely soothing voice and I rarely make it to the end most nights,

[@Ps44445]

What a wonderful story and mighty little bird! 🪶🪶🪶Loved everything in this story including the background music - Thank you

[@luciemarinov129]

[@GrimSquirrel1]

I really enjoy listening to your stories at night as I fall asleep. Would enjoy hearing a story based on the sword in the stone.

[@MegzNuGroovThang]

What a fantastic request! 👏 ❤

[@petiewolfe3]

Love to have a story about New Zealand. The waters were the color of turquoise and the sun was so bright. I stayed in a old Thomas hotel next to The Remarkable mountains. A story about that beautiful part of the world would be awesome 😎 and grateful ✨

[@jaquelinerondel4877]

Great idea from fellow kiwi

[@zoyb2845]

Hi Stephen! I’m from the Bay Area in the US and as a barista who grew up in San Francisco I’d love for you to have my city in cafes around the World Series! Thanks for the great videos Stephen! Cheers from the Bay Area 🌉

[@foundgarden]

Cute story. Thank you for sharing much information on our beautiful swallows

[@judymcclure8318]

I'd love a story about a woman who owns a coffee shop/bakery. I'd love to hear all the bakery sounds with customers and coffee making sounds. She loves her customers and baking...especially while it's raining outside. Thanks Stephen.

[@claudiaudy5300]

You are a remarkable storyteller. Thank you for all of who you are...your creativity, drive , professionalism and gentleness of your soul that you share so generously which heals us and brings us great comfort so we can find relaxed sleep . ❤

[@LindaKirkpatrick-fo9px]

I listen to your story’s often but I fall asleep and forget to like and comment on them ! I currently recovering from major surgery, I can’t tell you how much I have your stories have helped me relax and sleep while in hospital and now at home recovering. Thank you very much

[@teenamillar7013]

[@yvonneboyd2517]

Wonderful story. I felt like the swallow flying in the wind. Thank you so much. You are a master story teller. What's the name of the underlying music? It perfectly fit the story. Awesome experience. I felt the best relaxation ever. ❤

[@teenamillar7013]

I’m going to really love this sleep story too! Many thanks of appreciation Stephen 😊😊😊😊

[@sc6878]

Oh thank u Stephen, I'm looking forward to this story, d swallows have arrived back this year to our stable block, same time every year, I luv these beautiful little creatures. I'm late eve I sit watching them play outside our home, we live on east coast in Ireland. Fascinating to watch. Thank u, ur stories are mesmerising, I listen to u daily. 😊

[@user-nn3rc5yb9q]

As an ourdoorsie person and a aspiring ornithologist, THANK YOU so much for making this omg YES BIRDS

[@user-nn3rc5yb9q]

Oh my god the little swallow video and the sounds of the flock in the background is gonna make me cry it’s so cute

[@nataliebush8963]

Often at night I like to look to the lights of the city and just imagine the lives of the people there and what they r doing at that point. The nurses and doctors busy saving lives and delivering babies, the bar stuff working their shift, the mum's or dads feeding their babies late in the night, the couple cuddled up asleep ect. Something like that with the same music that you use on the sleepy night in Paris videos would be amazing

[@ravensridgeInn]

Thank you dear Stephen🎉 🙏 ❤

[@jwilliams1145]

Can't wait for this. Thanks so much!!!! 😊❤

[@kerrymolitor]

Your stories are awesome and so are the accompanying images. I love the animations.

[@Barbara-ib4bb]

What a wonderful journey I enjoyed every minute of it.I did try to listen to it for the last two nights but after the count down from 10 to 1I was a sleep, I decided I would listen to it this afternoon I had nothing to do and nowhere to go, I had a very relaxing hour, it just shows you can listen to a story anytime, thank you so much Stephen. from Yorkshire

[@DayanaTheReal1]

Please if you haven't already, give us a story about a warm breezy balmy Caribbean beach

[@gsilver5000]

I enjoyed this very much. Please continue this series. i can't say I heard all the story before falling asleep. This sone worked ! We have cliff swallows and barn swallows in my area. So graceful how they swoop and swish about before going into nests.
