Recordist's notes
The microphone beneath the wooden walkway bridge captures some of the movement of water as it flows from the creek into the pond. Listening back, my temptation would be to mark this as a hydrophone recording, but the colour comes from the enclosed space and the how the ripples are shaped by the reverberation of the wooden structure.
