Nørre Nebel, Central Denmark Region, Denmark
Morning in the countryside

The Tipperne Peninsula on the westcoast of Denmark is a relatively new area which was created by migrating sand just a couple of centuries ago. To stop the migrating sand, people in Sdr. Bork built dikes/protection with sticks, seaweed and heather. That is why the area is called Værnengene which means the protection-meadows in English. The farthest part of the area, which is called Tipperne, is the largest bird habitat in Northern Europe.

The Tipperne Peninsula and Værnengene (protection meadows) is a nature area with a multitude of different waterfowls breed and live here.

Værnengene, which is a large, protected area, is where I did this recording early one morning in July, surrounded by reeds, using 2 Rode NT1-A microphones, a MixPre and a Korg MR-2 recorder.

Hi - and again again - I reused the entire sound canvas for an arrangement for Hohner Pianet and Guitaret called "Walking the Narrow Path"

thanks again for your generosity in recording and uploading the sounds.

Hi. I used it again in a recording of a live-looping concert introducing the Tonkori-Kalimba. Many thanks once again, it's beautiful. https://soundcloud.com/ivodne-galatea/sets/tonkori-kalimba-piece

Thank you very much for providing this sound.
I used it as part of a collage in a piece called "Lost Empires" which is listenable and downloadable on SoundCloud here: https://soundcloud.com/ivodne-galatea/lost-empires
