At virtually any point in this recording one can scrub to a period in the file, listen for a few moments and here lush winds blowing across the landscape; dried leaves and shrubbery being pushed along the landscape; and various bird calls. There are two specific instances where the sonic environment was particularly pleasing and have been been annotated as so. There are also a couple of instances where some interesting wildlife movement is audible. At the 55 minute mark, there is a heavy flapping sound coming from, presumably, a bird taking flight from the recording location. The other is of a humming bird-esque fluttering that occurs around the 1 hour, 5 minute mark. The last notable event is wildlife movement from what could possibly be a rodent or other small animal. At the 1:35:04 mark the critter moves from the left channel to about the middle and then a few moments later quickly scurries from the right channel to the far left.

This recording contains more samples of bird calls and wildlife activity. There is a great session between a few birds calling back and forth between one another creating a large spacial environment due to their proximity. Other than this event, the only other instance is a vehicle drives through the scene at about the 8 minute mark.

Throughout this recording there are some pops and sort of crackling sounds that resemble rocks being rubbed together, which could indicate some movement during the recording. At 4:11 there is a car that starts and drives off. There are also some very distant birds talking from about the 12 minute mark right up until the last minute of the recording. It seems to be only one or two birds calling back and forth to one another. Yet, the calls are very quiet in the recording and certainly require headphones to hear. The author describes the setting at Jornada Experimental Range on March 14th at 6:14AM, about an hour before sunrise. He recorded Ambisonic SPS2000 on channels 1 - 4 and MS on channels 5 & 6.
