Recordist's notes
The day after, the bird continues to shout, everytime in the lime-tree. We tryed to expel it, but nothing changed. It's especially curious to listen to it during the night. On the next week, july 19, every shout had stopped and the lime-tree was completely silenced. We understood what happened. On the dead leaves, you can hear my old mother hanging the laundry.
