Recordist's notes

A European green woodpecker strikes a tree. In a typical rural landscape of Belgium, pheasant screams, common chiffchaff screams and a donkey screams (in fact near everybody scream in the woods ^^). Also, you can hear periodically a wolf ! It's a dog, finding time so long alone...
