Recordist's notes
Late evening recording at Birchen Copse, Woodcote. The bleats of sheep from a nearby farm, owls some way off, the creaking of trees and rustling movements of small animals in the bushes close-by, heard over a shifting drone of cars on the nearby A4074, trains on the Reading-Oxford mainline and planes passing high overhead. Recorded using a spaced pair of Sennheiser 8020s at 3m height on an SD788T.
