The hypnotic drone of bumblebees “drinking” under an ancient beech tree, near Arney bridge in County Fermanagh. A good friend and neighbour mentioned they heard a huge hum on their dog walk down this lane. By the time the recordings were made (around two weeks later) the drone had considerably faded, so you can imagine the numbers of bees and the size of this beautiful tree.

Initially, we were unclear as to why the bees were attracted to this particular tree. Research suggests that bees are attracted to honeydew*, which is the sugary substance secreted by aphids when feeding on tree sap.

This track is a composite of the field recordings and processing to extract and subsequently adding the fundamental frequency of the droning.

Species: Bombus genus
Date and time of recording: 11 July 2021, 10am
Location: Derreen East townland, County Fermanagh, Ireland
Habitat: Farmed grassland
Gear: Sony PCM D50, Sennheiser 8040 in parabolic dish, iZotope RX5 (software), paulstretch (software)

It's an overcast morning at a clearing deep in the Harenna forest. Wildlife has been up for hours and the dawn chorus is in full swing. Gigantic hornbills fly around, their harsh feathers sounding like miniature aircraft when gliding. 

Recorded in the beautiful Harenna Forest just south of Bale Mountains National Park in Ethiopia. Technical details: Sony PCM D10 and Lom MikroUsi microphones left out for 48 hours as drop rig. Longer version on my Youtube channel: https://youtu.be/rtVT5KKViN4
