Recordist's notes

Recording of Spotted Grass Frogs in the Laratinga Wetlands at Mt Barker, South Australia. Recorded using Schoeps CCM4Lg & CCM8Lg in M/S configuration into a Sound Devices 702 CF recorder. Rycote/Schoeps blimp. Recorded at about 1:30 p.m. Wednesday 17th September 2008. Sunny, fine approx. 20 degrees C. This recording was for the Frog Survey that occurs every September. There is a road about 40 metres behind the microphones and at this time of the day there is a constant passing of cars & trucks. About 1.5 km further back is the South Eastern Freeway. The recording is a 'quiet' section of a much longer one. sent by John Tudor at 17.09.2008 14:35
