Recordist's notes
I went exploring in the woods yesterday evening and came across this pair of Buzzards. I had to get my recorder out quickly as they called to each other above the canopy. I've seen these birds out this direction before. It's nice to see them living so close to the city. It was a very windy evening and you can hear it in the trees, and the little bit of wind noise in the mics. Recorder on a Roland-R07, internal mics. Lightly edited: low cut to reduce wind noise, and stereo width added.
