Recordist's notes
These recordings are from an audio stream placed beside a single oak tree on the roadside edge of a large pea field. The nearest gas-operated bird scarer is about 50m away. Another is a similar distance in the next field. It is a still evening and the bang can be heard echoing/reverberating for some seconds from tree lines and other reflective objects.
