Recordist's notes

This was recorded with Two Sonorous Objects SO.3 microphones plugged into a Zomm H4n pro. It is a recording of the early evening during the winter on our campus. This place is kind of abandoned, thus having a lot of green patches that are home to different insects and birds. At the time of recording, the sun has just set. The birds were getting back after a long day in the field, and the breeze was nice.
