Recordist's notes

The clip is recorded in Lamma Island, Shek Pai Wan beach. After the winter dry season and a few days of rain, the stream from the nearby mountain brushing through the beach, creating a mini "sandy canyon" on the beach. You will hear the crispy sound made by the stream hitting a small rock in its way. You may also notice the collapsing sound made by sand falling down as the water flows.
