Exquisite (as always). Thank you for your beautiful 'freebies' - they educate and inspire.

Did you get a custom Clippy with more cable to space them out more or are you using the standard ones spaced about 5 feet apart?  Or maybe 2 mono ones?  Nice stuff here again George.

A collection of soundscapes I recorded in the Amazon rainforest in March/April 2019. Read about the expedition on my blog: https://mindful-audio.com/blog/sound-recording-amazon-rainforest-expedition

Amazon rainforest

Dawn and dusk in the Amazon rainforest are particularly lush when it comes to biophony, especially by a slow flowing river. The stark contrast between the beauty of birdsong and the shrill urgency of insect calls is never as evident. Long version at https://youtu.be/Rq6eMZyVFtk

Dusk By The River In The Amazon Rainforest

The symphony of wildlife in the rainforest is more minimalistic but piercing and almost electronic. It takes a while to get accustomed to being surrounded by these sounds, but once you do it's like they've always been there. Long version at https://youtu.be/TiMJASuJmFg

Dark Night In The Amazon Rainforest

As dusk falls in the Amazon rainforest, the sounds of the jungle change dramatically. Long version at https://youtu.be/Yfm_Vkv0C9o

Dusk in the Amazon rainforest

The jungles of the Amazon are calm and still on a hot afternoon. There's a piercing insect chorus - frogs call occasionally - every now and then a bird chirps half-heartedly. Long version at https://youtu.be/l-v3GNgPR78

Borneo rainforest - Calm morning at Maliau Basin

This recording was captured right in front of my tent at a little after 5am on the side of the Chattooga River. The section I was camping near was very calm and saw many people fishing and tubing on the river each day. Luckily traffic was minimal this morning and I was able to record some pristine nature sounds!

Recorded with a Sony D100 on a tripod, sensitivity 10.

Thank you for reading and listening ☺

The Break of Dawn Chorus (Sony D100)

The track opens with a Wren in full voice, later a Robin makes some 'ticking' calls, nearby a stream can be heard quite clearly even though it was behind an earthen bank. Sennheiser MKH8020's and a Sound Devices MixPre3.  Ballinvally Woods, north-west of Arklow, County Wicklow, Ireland.  21st of July 2020 beginning at 5.10am.  Recording 3427.

Dawn Chorus - 21 July 20 - 5.10am - Ballinvally

It's early morning at a dry riverbed in the Borneo rainforest. Gentle fog drip creates a subtle drawn-out rhythm while the calls of insects provide a monotonous backdrop. Long version at https://youtu.be/tfP38CFtGOk
