Media notes

This recording probably qualifies better as soundscape. The Blue Jay, who I never saw but thought was hidden in bushes an estimated two car lengths away, calls at regular intervals throughout the recording. Also heard: House Sparrow, White-throated Sparrow, American Robin, Carolina Wren, American Crow, Canada Goose, Carolina Chickadee, Tufted Titmouse, and Northern Cardinal. There is light wind, distant vehicular traffic, and an airplane.

Additional species

  • White-throated Sparrow Zonotrichia albicollis
