Cuckoos at dawn
from Cities and Memory - remixing the world · host Cities and Memory
A soundscape of a particularly misty morning, recorded at 4.12am during late spring from the observing window of the Tomintoul Bird Hide. The hide sits on the edge of the highest village in the Highlands of Scotland. The calls of cuckoos create an eerie presence that gives depths to the length of the surrounding valley. Along with the days awakening dawn chorus, loud insects chirping, a brash pheasant interrupts the scene as well as slight interior noise from the bird hide.Recorded by Rachel Larsen-Jones.
