Recordist's notes
In the Brabant-Wallon rural landscape, the irritating shouts of two Spotted Flycatchers, discussing between them. At the beginning, there's a few sound of agricultural works. After, the birds you can hear are [french name and english name] : Gobemouche gris (Spotted Flycatcher) - tsii tsii tsii. Troglodyte mignon (Eurasian Wren) - tac tac tac tac Pic vert (European Green Woodpecker) Buse variable (Common Buzzard) - yerk, yeerk. It's great to listen the Common Buzzard, as it's not so easy to record it, it's a very moving bird of prey.
