Sussex Kittiwake colony (Rissa tridactyla). This evening I was able to get right onto the beach below the chalk cliffs where the birds are nesting. Scores of them were flying around calling above me. Background sound of the sea. Sony MZ-N10 and ECM-MS907 stereo mic. See: http://www.flickr.com/photos/acclivity/143358725/

Wonderful, this time you got the calls even with more accuracy than in the former sample (up to 15 Khz vs 13 Khz on average). I still like Kittiwakes1.wav a lot because it's so varied, with the waves and all.
