Media notes

NOTES: Recordist- Recording almost continually from 5:45 AM till 6:10 AM (sunrise at 6:25, although actually later at this location because of mountains). The mike was moved in an arch of about 120¡ depending on where the loudest sound was coming from. The hum comes from the mike being too close to the recorder at times. The most obvious species are Otus asio, Glaucidium gnoma, Toxostoma longirostre. The temp was about 65-70¡F. The sky was clear and no wind.
