Только еле слышное стрекотание кузнечиков доносилось издалека, да где-то далеко-далеко был слышен трубный звук. Это Выпь, опустив клюв в воду и выпуская туда воздух, сообщала всем, что на болотах все тихо.
Описанная ситуация вызывает некоторое затруднение. Пока что у меня не вышло придумать ничего умнее вот этого:
That was the Bittern: blowing through its beak dipped in the water, it thus let everyone know that all was quiet on the Marshes.

It was the Bittern, letting everyone know that all was quiet in the Marshes, by sticking its beak in to the water and blowing through it.
