In this, the fourth episode in the Wild Bird Acoustics opening season, I have a some wonderful audio to share with the listener's. I first take you through a random selection of my recordings, with species from several locations, over the seasons. In this sound magazine, I decided to draw from a wider range of recordings, some late in the year, in order to give an overview of what will be forthcoming in future episodes.
 Following this, you will enjoy audio of one of Europe's most abundant species, Common Blackbird. Everyday species should not be ingnored by the sound recorder and can be extremely interesting to record in the field. Many of our most abundant species are extremely interesting from an auditory perspective and Common Blackbird is a fine example of this. As a species, it has inspired the poetry of leterary great, appeared in the works of popular culture and is a species most people will be familiar with. Many people will have them in their back gardens and see them daily, but how many take the time to tke a second look. Vocally, few would argue, it's song ranks highly in the avian world, as one of the most beautiful and evocative in Europe.
Lastly,  I will round off the episode with a trip to Landsort, for a day out field recording on the Stockholm Archipelago in early Spring.
