A migrating flock of Bean Goose and Greater White-fronted Goose (and Whooper Swans) resting on the fields of Preiviiki in Wester Finland. The flock of maybe one to two thousand birds is leaving the field for getting out to the sea ice for night and gets active.

From an over night recording with microphones hidden in the woods by the field.

A few Geese - 26/3/2021 - Preiviiki Fields

Ploughing aural fields in remote North.

Field recordist, bird watcher and a digitized former darkroom rat living in little Makholma village on the West Coast of Finland by the Baltic Sea - 61N 21E

These recordings are done in AB stereo with omnidirectional microphones. With this technique everything in the field will be equally meaningful, even the silence behind the microphones. That's why you should use headphones!

My recordings are merely like a process than individual tracks, and should be considered in the context of my blog-alike site:  www.baltic.fi

For better quality, the tracks are downloadable as 24 bit flac. For commercial use, please take contact.
