about

Tuesday 2nd February 2021: Our garden appears to be quite untidy compared to our neighbours' but it's very much by design. My wife has planned it with wildlife in mind rather than traditional human aesthetics and, goodness me, it attracts a lot of birds at this time of year!

They've been arriving seemingly in their hundreds today, so much so that a courier delivering a parcel was spellbound by the sights and sounds of so many species flitting about this morning.

Anyway, the weather's atrocious and I've got a lot on but, nevertheless, I couldn't resist quickly grabbing my shotgun microphone to make this quick mono recording of the cacophony for posterity. If only we'd done the RSPB's Big Garden Birdwatch today rather than at the weekend. Hey ho...at least the birds are in abundance!

As always, good headphones or speakers recommended for full sonic enjoyment.
