This recording was taken on one of the walking paths on Vogelinsel (Bird Island) at the Altmühlsee (Lake) in Germany, which is a nature reserve. The microphone was mounted on a stand. On both sides of the path is water - behind there is a small pond and in front of the mic-direction, a big lake. All around this, there are other small islands. Various different birds are heard, frogs croak, and sometimes one hears water sounds. They could come from fish. One can hear insects flying around the microphone, humans talking far away, music coming from a radio or so is heard as well along with airplanes.
