Recordist's notes

Frogs in a small stream are singing, discontinuously. Busy traffic in the back. Distant heavy construction work with alarm sounds Des grenouilles dans un ruisseau chantent, sans interruption. Bruit de trafic derrirère l’enregistreur. Bruit de chantier lointain, et son d’alarme Sony PCM-D100, internal mics
