Saint-Nicolas-la-Chapelle, Savoie, France

A recording of a herd of alpine cows, decked out with traditional cowbells.

Recorded using a pair of Primo EM272s clipped to the fence. Unfortunately, after they spotted me they gradually moved away to the other side of the field, as can be heard in the recording.

Recorded at the base of Mont Charvin in the Alps in July 2025.

Brilliantly recorded. I just wonder if those animals don't go completely mad from all that ringing.
