Microphones in the Moss; The Tyresta Files #2

March in Sweden is a period when resident species begin to become active after a long winter here in Sweden and woodland habitats begin to ring with the sounds of singing birds once again. In 2025 I visited Tyresta National Park throughout the early Spring period in order to record these resident species, before the return of summer migrants. I was interested in recording the soundscape within woodland before it became saturated with the song of a wider range of species. In effect, the sound of woodland in early spring is rather pure and it is an excellent time to obtain high quality recording of several special species, such as Black Woodpecker and Red Crossbill. I found a wonderful soundscape to record within the park, as I traversed this massive tract of woodland in search of birds. The results of this intensive sound recording project were quite wonderful and surpassed my own expectations. In this episode, I share recordings from that early spring period, just before most migrants return to Sweden. Leave a comment here....Support the showSubscibe to Wild Bird Acoustics here;https://wildbirdacoustics.buzzsprout.comLots more audio related material here at my long running website;https://blogbirder.blogspot.com/
