  • A Birdy Dawn in Tübingen (full)

    This is a longer version of last week's recording of a very birdy morning in

    Tübingen last spring. In this full clip you hear the full evolution of the
    chorus from well before dawn, when only a few blackbirds were calling, through
    a few showers of rain, and ending with a cacophony of bird calls about half an
    hour after sunrise.

  • A Birdy Dawn in Tübingen

    A very birdy morning in Tübingen last spring. Starts well before dawn, when

    only a few blackbirds were calling, and ends with a cacophony of various
    species about half an hour after sunrise.

    This is a shorter excerpt from a quite long recording I'll post next week.

  • Ending the year with many bangs

    This was Tübingen last new years eve: an impressively loud fireworks display all up and down the valley. The recording ends with the deafening crescendo around midnight, which filled the valley with smoke and sent the year out with slightly too many explosions.

    Caution, this is a fairly loud recording in places so perhaps turn down the headphones!

  • A night in the desert at Coward springs

    This was one evening from near our campsite at Coward Springs, along the Oodnadatta track at the south end of Kati Thanda–Lake Eyre. Featuring a very persistent Willie Wagtail, along with a bunch of insects and bats.

  • Lyrebirds in Namadgi

    Recorded one afternoon in Namadgi NP (near Canberra) in winter a couple of

    years ago. Lyrebirds have an amazing repertoire of mimicry, some of which is
    captured here. Also featuring a frog-laden small creek and an assortment of
    other wet eucalypt forest birds. (Image by L.T.)
