I have never in my life heard anything so beautiful.

@user-168726770: Maybe some very low bass cut, but no de-noise.  It is a tool I hardly ever use.

Ночь

This is a recording of some interactions on a black grouse lek in the highlands of Scotland. 

It was recorded with a Sony M10 and a matched pair of Clippy EM172 mics.

AVIEMORE  - BLACK GROUSE LEK - EARLY MORNING - VERY CLOSE COOING AND HISSES 2.0 M10

Dawn in Ulu Muda Forest Reserve, Malaysia. Recorded at daybreak, rich birdsong along with and the jazz-like percussive rattles of a cicada species building in intensity from about halfway through this sample. Agile Gibbons sing in the background.

Dawn Chorus - Ulu Muda Rainforest, Malaysia

The song of my favorite bird captured with incredible detail by the Telinga Modular with two EM272 capsules installed in stereo configuration.

Distance from the wood thrush was about 7 meters.

Wood Thrush Song | Telinga Modular Parabolic Microphone

Summer night on Hällsjön at around 1:00am. Eurasian Bittern, Common Snipe, Eurasian Woodcock, Sedge Warbler and many more species were actively calling 
through the (short!) night.

As the sunset in the old disused quarry, just outside Lérouville, most of the songbirds fell silent. But the Song Thrush perched just to the left of my microphones and continued singing for another 15 minutes. In the background we hear the melodic chorus of Common Midwife Toads that were located in the sandy hill just ahead of my mics. At around 3 minutes in, we also hear Parsley Frogs off in the distance.

Midnight With A Visitor & Coyotes

Forest At Night - Crickets Owls Rain Wind In Trees - Nature Sounds To Relax Stud

This is an edit of recordings from the highland rainforests of the Huon Peninsula in Papua New Guinea.

These recordings were made during a recent trip to PNG with several colleagues from the Australian Wildlife Sound Recording Group. This edit contains some highlights from the four weeks we spent trekking and recording in the mountain forests above 2000m. 

In the near future I'll be making these recordings available in full, but for now, this is some of what we encountered.

A soundbit from my recent travel to northwest Greece. After the evening rainshower the sky cleared up and I got some hope for a recording session at the Vikos gorge. I had abandoned my original plan to descend in the gorge and spend couple of days there, as the rain kept on and the danger of slippery paths and falling rocks outweighed the chance of successful recording. Not to mention the fact that rain itself ruins it.
I set up my tent on the hillside at the edge of canyon, in hope of getting the reverbs of owl calls. Here you can hear the mellow chorus of crickets, some distant hoots of Tawny Owls and also the purring of Green Toads (Bufo viridis) which carried surprisingly well over the distance.
I must say that Vikos is not the best place for recording evening ambiences - the density of airtraffic is intolerable. This is the longest bit without plane noise I got from this evening and night. But I am still happy with that :)

Refugio Amazonas Dusk to Night

The last days of February were colder and a solid ice of about three inches formed partially one mile out to sea. The Whooper Swans had arrived past week but what I think could be Bean Goose appeared for the first time. At 9 min a fox is crying. 

The sea water was rising due to an arriving low front. This and because the ice was new and solid, causes the crackling sounds. I was lucky to experience this, as it is absolutely not a common phenomenon, at least not here by the sea shore.  The picture with a big Venus and new moon was taken during the recording.

A cabinetmaker by trade.  I have been recording birds for over 40 years.  Even as a seven year old I loved to hear the sound of birds. 
I believe that birdsong is a perfect reflection of the natural environment and yet a part of the experience of the environment.  
Over the years I have made some wildlife films and videos.  For wildlife recording I have been around Ireland, Wales, Finland, Estonia, Sweden, Belize, Guyana, Brazil, Peru and Costa Rica. At the moment I have 26 albums of birdsong/nature, most of which can be found here for free download in high quality F.L.A.C. format.
  
Birdsong is Spiritual Medicine,
a Natural Treasure 
and a Companion to Silence.
