Media notes

In the first recording segment, multiple individuals sing, sometimes overlapping. In the second recording segment one individual less than three feet away from me sang softly. Each segment was normalized separately. Also heard: White-throated Sparrow, Northern Cardinal, Canada Goose, Swamp Sparrow, movement by the recordist, light wind, and an airplane.
