Recordist's notes
Le Marais aux Oiseaux is owned by the dapartment of Charente-Maritime. It’s located in the center of l’île d’Oléron, in-between the towns of Dolus-d’Oléron and Saint-Pierre-d’Oléron, within around 130 hectares of hardwood trees and former salty marchlands, entitled a sensitive natural space. Being about 10 hectares vast, this land is home of two different structures : the discovery site with a pedagogic purpose, and the departmental healing center of the wildlife. Their missions take a big part in the protection of nature : The discovery site is meant to raise the masses’ and the school attenders’ (ou : schoolchildren’s) awareness on the environment. As for the departmental care center of the wildlife, it helps wild animals in distress, from the moment they are found, to their return to liberty. Capatation : ZOOMF4 + Saturne Microphone by Griffon
