Recordist's notes
A Muntjac calls from the slopes of The Malvern Hills late at night. Recorded as an overnight event from my garden. The deer was about 500 metres away above the house. Rarely seen in the area but one visited us 2 years ago and was caught on our trail cam. MixPre 6 II. 2 x Sennheiser MKH 8020s and 2 x Beyer Lavaliers. This was an experiment with 4 tracks but only the Sennheiser tracks were used here.
