Recordist's notes
Cardinals in the rain on White Horse Trail just down the hill from the horse training ring. This is a small meadow-like area where there always seem to be a many birds singing. On a rare day when no helicopters, ambulances, police cars, motorcycles, or other human-made sounds typically dominate the park. Captured on TASCAM DR-40 in wide X-Y stereo.
