Recordist's notes
In a bird hide (observatoire) under a willow tree, the wind was pushing the willow branches across the corrugated tin roof and wooden sides of the hut. The resulting sound is quite irregular and difficult to visualise. In the background you can also hear some birds squeaking. Recorded on a zoom H4n internal mics.
