Park, Woodpeckers, Great Tit, Dove, wing beat, insects. Daytime ambiance of mixed forest with pine and birch trees in April.
Kampina april 2020
The great tit sings wonderfully. The great spotted woodpecker is hammering his territory and looking for beautiful women. The wood pigeon sings. It is quiet in this somewhat too quiet coronavirus forest. The ticking, crackling sound comes from the pinecone that shoots its seeds. The sun and the dry air warms the pine cones, causing them to dry. As a result, they open with a tap. At the end some wind in the pines.

REMARK
Because the coronavirus almost everyone stays at home. That's why I went to my favourite forest to make unique audio recordings. I've never heard it so quiet during the day. Even the farmers in the area let their machines stop for a moment and hold their breath to enjoy.
Enjoy this recording and remember all corona dead for a moment.
