Recordist's notes

During the last 20 year, water management and renaturation of formerly straightened ditches has been established, in order to keep water available to the vegetation in the area, feed swamps and moores and clean the still polluted water. Contact Mic recording of the water flow. (Sony PCM D50, DIY contact mics)
