The River Tay, Dunkeld.
Ambience from the shore of the River Tay in Dunkeld.

Tascam FR-AV2.
Primo EM272M's.

This capture is from a day visit to Dunkeld in May of last year.
The microphones were set up at a bench beside the river to capture the general ambience of the day.
A slight wind can be heard in the trees. Traffic rumbles across the Dunkeld Bridge, and along the nearby A9.
Birds fly around above the grassy bank and across the water.
Tourists and day-trippers wander around, taking in the beautiful scenery and making the most of the sunny weather.

Thanks @sniffin_fer_sounds.
Yes, I like the Primo's so much i have a couple of pairs;
one pair fixed on a tripod rig, and one pair for my pocket.
Glad you liked the capture.
Much appreciated.

Thanks Kevin.
Yes, this gull really fancied his chances for scraps of food from the day-trippers.
Glad you liked it.
Much appreciated.
