Recordist's notes
Around 25 degrees centigrade, way too warm for mid April. Tulips and daffodils are gone by now and the birds are singing their lungs out ;-) In the distance the sounds of a motorbike repairs place with some humming engines. Recorded in our private garden, neighbouring a deserted property with lots of old trees and home to many of these birds. Recorded with a Sony PCM-D100, internal microphones only, low-cut filter @75 Hz and dead-kitten against some wind gusts.
