This was recorded on my front verandah, summer 2009. The high pitched chirps you can hear at the begining are bats.

Recorded with my Rode NT4 into a humble Zoom H4.

This is an audio portrait of Fryers Forest after a drought breaking rain event in October 2010.  

Ten years we waited for the rains to come. It is amazing how dispiriting it is to  endure ten years with very little rainfall. And then in October 2010 the rain fell. The creek that had barely flowed for ten years suddenly gushed. The dams refilled and the burden lifted.

This is a little stereo experiment. Using two stereo mics positioned some 80 metres apart, i was able to create the illusion of changing perspective, from the forest to lakeside.

Recorded at Karlkurla Park on the northern edge of Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. One of the most mesmerizing and haunting sounds of the Australian bush is the wind blowing through the leaves of the She-oak or Casuarina. March 1st 2013.
