Sit in the middle of an ancient and massive meadow in the backcountry of Yellowstone National Park and listen to the nighttime calls of Sora and Wilson's Snipe during May 2021.

This recording was captured using a Sound Devices MixPre6 digital audio recorder and two Sennheiser MKH20 omnidirectional microphones placed in a homemade binaural housing.

Wear headphones for the best listening experience.
