Owls

Unfortunately there are some cars passing by on a single track road, when I did this nighttime recording of some owls. Still very atmospheric. AT3031 microphones and Oade Brothers FR-2LE recorder.

Love this! Fortunately for me, I was looking for that exact sound of a car going by at night. Thanks!

Thanks for the comment. I just realized now, that I used the AT3031 microphones instead of the AT3032 ones and them in a 90° way.

Great atmosphere...good rig to record it with too. What mic spacing did you use?
