Recordist's notes
A recording made late in the evening on a bench near the animal enclosure at the mini zoo in Śrem. Among the animals there is a Scottish Highland bull; at the beginning, you can hear him scraping his horn against the enclosure fence, and later in the recording, you can hear him tapping as he walks along the fence and then scraping against some sheet metal or wire. There are also faint sounds of other animals, the murmur of water nearby, and a group of teenagers fooling around in the distance. The roar of a motorcycle echoes throughout the park. (Tascam FR-AV2 + LOM Uši Pro)
