Back to EpisodesThe VisMig Files #2; Early May at Tyresta National Park
Description
Wild Bird Acoustics brings you two sound magazines in this episode. As Autumn now stretches out in front of us, I thought this might be a good time to include the second installment of passively recorded audio from my listening station at Hällögern in Västrbotten. Podcast listener's will now be very familiar with this location, but this will be the first time I will share audio from the late autumn period at this site. In 2024, due of the aqquisition on a new SM Mini recorder for this site, I was able to passively record for a significantly longer period of time, which allowed me to collect audio all the way into mid November. I will share the results of that passive deployment with listeners in this sound magazine.
The second half of this episode concernes itself with field recording at Tyresta National Park in early May. Having recorded there extensively throughout early spring, it was wonderful to get out into the field and experience new sounds in the park in May, those of newly return summer migrants. It is during the late spring period that many breeding species return and reclaim breeding territories at this site and I was on hand to get some lovely audio as this began to happen in 2025. Join me as I share some wonderful audio of a wide range of species, as summer species began to flood back into Sweden.
