Sparrow in the Walnut tree

This year there are many sparrows nesting in the roof and in the garden. Their insistent call has really defined the texture of this spring and summer, a constant sonic presence in the garden. They especially like to sing in a nearby walnut tree but also in the tree which is next to this in the neighbouring garden. I strapped my recorder into the tree one fine afternoon to document these special sounds. You can also hear the red kites and the crows that live in our neighbourhood. I really love these sounds as a kind of foreground for the background sounds of where we live - the vague and omnipresent traffic bass; the deep blurry presence of planes in the sky; and the soughing of the wind through all the close together suburban gardens... you can hear blackbirds too. Sorry it's a bit peaky in places... the sparrow got quite close to the recorder I think. Maybe he wants to be a rockstar of aporee.
