Birzeit Sunset

Recorded in the olive groves of Birzeit village, north of Ramallah, Palestine. This ambient track features a distant sheep bleating, a donkey braying, buzzing bees nearby, and the subtle roar of an airplane passing overhead. The soundscape captures a layered moment of rural life in the early evening, blending animal sounds with natural insect movement and overhead human activity. Ideal for sound designers, documentarians, or anyone looking for authentic Middle Eastern countryside atmosphere.

Location: Palestine, Ramallah, Berzeit.
