Recordist's notes

El Parque de Los Azules is a famous neighborhood park with a great variety of elements for recreation, it’s a place where many children and young people go to have fun. The fundamental sound is the sound of traffic, because despite being a quiet park, the distance between it and Highway 30 is five blocks, therefore, the sound of traffic is very noticeable, especially in low frequencies. As a sound signal we find the singing of birds, the barking of dogs and the passing of bicycles. The characteristic sound mark of the place are the screams of children, who shout recognizable words in Spanish. You hear the word "tapabocas" a couple of times, this is an important factor, knowing that we are in 2021.
