Recordist's notes

(description in English below) Deze wijk zit zomers vol parkieten. Ze zitten in de bomen en bewegen zich in een grote groep van de ene naar de andere boom. De straat wordt een soort landingsbaan waarop de parkieten in een razend tempo opstijgen en voorbij zoeven. In the summer this neighbourhood is full of parakeets. They sit in the trees and move in large groups from one tree to another. This street is used as a runway in which the parakeets pace off in high speed.
