Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam
[Canto 4, Ch. 24]
birds, like swans,  cakravākas  and  kāraṇḍavas , stood on the shores and vibrated their different songs, making the entire scene attractive and beautiful.

These all created such an atmosphere that it appeared as though a festival were taking place there.
PURPORT
Trees and creepers are also different types of living beings. When bumblebees come upon trees and creepers to collect honey, certainly such plants become very happy. On such an occasion the wind also takes advantage of
