Recordist's notes
The small nature reserve is a sanctuary of European pond turtle, however it is said that the turtles either moved to a different place or have been caught and taken away. The nature reserve is a marsh connected to a lake in a forest complex. Suddenly, the wind picked up and it started raining, adding to the unsettling atmosphere in the reserve on a rather cold, fall day. (Tascam FR-AV2 + LOM Uši Pro)
