Recordist's notes
Morning ambience by the Warta River in the Łęgi Mechlińskie Nature and Landscape Complex. It was raining lightly, you can hear rustling of raindrops on the leaf-covered ground. The sounds of birds were particularly intense in this place as if all the bird life from the area focused here. In the distance, you can hear car tires hitting the metal joints on the bridge, which makes a small break in the road what causes makes a loud clang with a flam when the cars pass over it. Dogs bark from the nearby village of Łęg. (Tascam FR-AV2 + LOM Uši Pro)
