Recordist's notes

I was recording a specific cricket who was singing with his peculiar voice, when suddenly an expected bird starts to say something in this quiet night. What a beautiful meeting! I cound not see them it was too dark, but I never feel alone when I am listening to them Recorded by microphone binaural + zoom h4N.
