Recordist's notes

On the bank of river Nemunas, which was frozen over. This happens if the winter is cold enough, which it was, as it was one of the coldest winters Lithuania faced in the 21st century. Lots of bird calls happening around as people are walking by behind. There's also noises coming from the other side of the river where some construction work was taking place. Rumbling can be heard from roads further up the riverside. Equipment: EM272 Clippys + Zoom F3
