Recordist's notes
Directly under the bridge is a metal post that rings nicely when hit with a stick. A cap at the top gives a different pitch, so melodies of two tones are possible. This afternoon these metallic tunes were accompanied by as chainsaw in the distance. The weather was cold but beautiful; a bright sun and an intense blue sky.
