Recordist's notes
Early afternoon on a very hot day. Recorded with an Olympus LS 12 Recorder using the buit in microphones. Microphones facing downstream. A couple of cars passing by. A small aircraft passes overhead. Members of the resident colony of House Martins (Delichon urbicum) can be heard, also ducks and a marsh warbler and other birds from the river and the trees on the riverbanks. Some fish making soft splashing sounds.
