Recordist's notes
Ap Chau is an island located in the east of Starling Inlet and the west of Kat O with a size of 0.04 km² and the highest hill of 28m. Ap Chau literally means duck island since the it looks like a floating duck on the sea. You could hear the sound from the waves hitting the rocks. 甲龍古道因甲龍村得名,是香港其中一條歷史悠久的古道。古道位於荃錦公路旁,連接甲龍和荃錦坳,是古時八鄉石崗一帶務農人士往來荃灣市集的必經之路。甲龍石澗源於大帽山西部,澗道林木茂盛,水潭流瀑不斷。這是位於澗道與甲龍古道交接處的一個漩渦的錄音。
