Recordist's notes

Recorded on a late night bicycle ride around Chuncheon lake. There is a small canoe hire business where the wooden craft are moored for the night. There was a slight breeze and lake surface was in motion, setting the canoes to knock against each other and the wharf itself. Thanks to the late hour, what is normally a noisy place was relatively free from engine sound. In the distance can be heard a 소쩍새 (Scops owl (?)).
