Re: Latvian Bittern Camera 2015 and 2016
I was just about to write how lovely the sound of the wind through the reed is without the G R Warblers song and it started again….
But I hope that the camera will stay on for a little while. The sounds are wonderful and interesting, especially at night. Like the booming of the Bittern male last night.

00:32 What noise! Frogs, Water rail (incessantly! I would rather hear a G.R.Warbler), lots of wind. No Bittern male booming....
Fleur, the young coots may be a Water rail, says Hagnat.

I did say nothing, but the prominent loud calls in Fleurs video are Water rail. And there are calls of very young possible Coot to hear. I don't know how Water rails of that age sound.Marfo wrote:00:32 What noise! Frogs, Water rail (incessantly! I would rather hear a G.R.Warbler), lots of wind. No Bittern male booming....

Btw. With the internal speakers of your computer it is not possible to hear the booming of Bitterns. The sound is too low.

I see what you mean! Large birds flying over. The sound does come and go like when birds fly over. Maybe some sort of geese ? Not a cow.guest wrote: flying 6:47:38? but not cow

Here is the sound of the cows, starting at 22:18. Use good speakers, pump up the volume and enjoy.

23:07 Bittern booming
It's incredible that a relatively small bird can produce such a deep sound.
23:10 cows 'calling'.
