Recordist's notes

fish and chips on the corner of the car park ... bit unseemly ... eating fish and chips with two herring gulls in very close attendance ... hoping they would be more vocal ... possibly next time ... dpa 4060s to Zoom H5 ... mics clipped to bag ... noise from cars ... footfall ... voices ... joined later by socially distanced other fish and chippers ...
