A large variety of waterfowl and songbirds call to each other. A family passes by, including two children with scooters, headed to one of the many nearby parks. To the west, across White Lake, Montague's fire siren sounds to mark 12 noon. Stereo and shotgun mics (Audio-Technica, AT-822 & DAK UEM-83R), recorded via Sony MDs (MZ-NF810 & MZ-R700, pre-amps) and Tascam DR-60DmkII.
