Recordist's notes
Below two rubbish bins, we heard two small Common midwife toad. It's a small frog which makes repetitive tuu tuu tuu tuu. Without experience, you could think it's a Eurasian Scops Owl. But, below a rubbish bin, this could be a problem to find that kind of bird ! The midwife toad has extremely beautiful gold silver eyes. I put the recorder near the frogs, but unfortunately people is speaking at the entrance of the cemetery.
