Bird Song in Snowfall -- Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado, U.S.A.

Costa Rica's rainforests are lively and active at night, even if it might not seem like it. A night walk in the jungle will reveal countless creatures going about their business - hunting or trying to avoid hunters, looking for food and sometimes searching for a mate.

Night in the jungles of Costa Rica

The clear "peep" notes in the beginning of the track are the Swainson's Thrush nocturnal call notes and then the bird starts singing its flutey, upward spiraling song. This was recorded on a Songmeter on the lands of the Poplar River First Nation in the Pimachiowin Aki World Heritage Site. Find out more here:  https://pimaki.ca/

Swainson's Thrush Nocturnal Call Notes In Song - Poplar River Manitoba - S4A01761 20160608 050002

This recording was made on January 10, 2018 at around 645am along the Slough Creek Campground road in Yellowstone National Park using a Sound Devices 722 digital audio recorder and two Audio Technica AT4022 omnidirectional microphones placed in a homemade binaural housing.

This pack of coyotes snuck up on me while I was listening to a pack of wolves howl. After the wolves stopped howling the first time, everything went silent. Gradually, I could hear the footprints of several animals running through the snow around me. Because it was still dark, I never saw them, even though they got to within 30-40 ft of where I was seated. Needless to say, they put on quite a show. Several minutes afterwards, the wolves resumed howling. Quite a morning for canids!

For the best listening experience, wear headphones!

Enjoy!

Recordings were made under permits issued by the park and for the purpose of science and education.

Early morning at a small pond - Tabin Wildlife reserve in the Borneo rainforest. A water hen calls incessantly near the mics while a distant Coucal's notes reverberate through the forest. Longer version on Youtube at https://youtu.be/Q3J9ZSPhPKs

Recorded with Sony PCM D10 and Lom MikroUsi microphones taped to the branches of a dead tree in the centre of the pond. Read about my expedition to Borneo at https://mindful-audio.com/blog/sound-recording-borneo

Borneo Rainforest - Morning At The Pond

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

It's a hot sunny day on the Equator by the river Mounianze. Chlidren play on the side of the road as their mothers wash clothes in the river. Read about my expedition to Gabon and the Congo rainforest at https://mindful-audio.com/blog/2019/8/8/sound-recording-expedition-to-the-congo-rainforest

Gabon - River Mounianze On The Equator - Children Playing

This is my favorite recording from my 5 day camping trip on the Chattooga River in South Carolina. 

I woke up around 5am this morning to the first bird call of the dawn chorus. I quickly and quietly got out of my sleeping bag and setup my Sony D100 on a tripod and began recording. 

This recording is the highlight from a longer, 60 minute recording. I love the natural reverb effect from the birds calling across the open river. 

Thank you for taking the time to read and listen ☺

Snowy Range Mountain Creek On North Fork Trail

This is one of my favorite recordings from my recent camping trip on the Chattooga River.

I went down to the edge of the river during dusk and setup my Sony D100 on a tripod. I then went back to camp, ate dinner and relaxed as I listened to the transition of day to night. 

My favorite part of this recording are all the jumping and splashing fish. I also enjoy the closeup calls of bull frogs and green frogs. 

Thank you for listening ♫
