Recordist's notes
During the open day at Brazier's Park, we discovered they are raising some pigs there in an orchard. The pigs were wonderful company, and so we hung out with them for a little while, listening to their small grunts and munching sounds, and the noises of folk passing by and remarking on the pigs. Very simple recording just made by leaving my EDIROL R-09 on the floor beside the field with the pigs in it.
