Recordist's notes
Berlin's nightingales are a joy to hear when coming home at night. Their songs from the dark interiors of parks, cemeteries, railway edges and playground bushes, are crystal clear even from a distance and they don't seem to mind if you approach more closely to listen. During late April and early May they are in full voice, particularly on warm nights.
