Recordist's notes

It's very uncommon to have a short time without planes and I took advantage to record the forest during this short period. The masters of the woods : Robin, Common Pheasant, Eurasian Blackcap, Wood Pigeon, Blackbird, Common Chiffchaff. Discreet : Eurasian Wren, Great Spotted Woodpecker (5:50 mn), Western Jackdaw, one human and a dog, plump mosquito on the microphone.
