A mockingbird going through its repertoire on a slow downtown morning. The background hum is probably large air conditioning units or perhaps a generator in the distance at a construction site. A car passes midway through the recording, approaching from behind so the stereo effect is almost nonexistent.
Christmas day 2007 in ramsgate harbour. The weather was cold and misty with a bit of wind. The result is an eerie sound as the wind rattles the rigging of the yachts, enhanced by a couple of birds flying across the harbour making mournful squawks.

Rhythmic noise from some kind of loud machine, recorded outdoors, as evidenced by birdsong in the background. I honestly have no idea what was making the noise, though, and my notes are missing. Mysterious!.
A gathering of small birds chattering in a bush outside my house, chattering to each other. Some wind noise, wind chimes and (unfortunately) the vibration noise of the minidisc recorder drive spinning are all clearly audible at various points.
This is a loop made at berry college in rome, ga. I wanted to capture some of the feeling of quiet, but there was a bird in the distance making a rhythmic sound that i liked.
Stereo recording by pond with loud frogs and audible birds. Some wind noise. Note i've now uploaded a "noise reduced" version. Search my sounds (the ones by "maphill").
Here in the midwest one sure sign that winter "has left the building" is when the neo-tropical migrants arrive in the forests to gorge themselves on the multitude of insects, and to raise a family. One of my favorite bird-songs is this "zipper" sounding call of the northern parula. Perhaps you have heard this very unique call while out in the woods. I recorded this with my zoom h4n recorder, using its internal stereo microphones. This sound was recorded around 7am on april 29th 2013.
This time of year is very vibrant in the woods of southern illinois. . . This chorus of warblers and other similar songbirds, was recorded using my h4n recorder and the built-in microphones. Enjoy the natural soundscape!.
