about

Recording at El Escorial, Madrid, Spain.

26/07/2021

21:30h-23:30h

This recording was taken during an Athene noctua study. In order to catch some specimens, we used webs with the bridcall´s sound. There were a lot of athene noctua, so it's not difficult to differenciate the birdcall from the singing of real birds.
The sound, in general, is the typical one on a summer night in the field: wind, insects, birds, some cows... In order to avoid traffic noise (cars, motorbikes, train,...) I´ve chopped the 2h and a half recording into this tracks. In this recording you can also hear the scream of the Corvus corone (Corneja). They didnt appear in the previous recording.
Like in the previous recording, you can hear an Athene noctua interacts with the microphones around the minute 32´20´´ of the track 5
I didnt cut the high frequencies in order to conserve the insect´s voices (I usually do it in order to avoid selfnoise of the equipment)

You can enjoy a very complete catalogue of Athene noctua´s calls: alarm, chicks asking for food, territorial calls....At least,a beautiful "conference of birds"....

- Tettigonia Viridisima
- Oecanthus pellucens
- Platycleis affinis

Better with headphones in a quiet place. 50-70% volume.
