Night sounds

[Walter Knapp <>]

Out in the blackness recording frogs tonight I recorded a new sound, or 
at least new to my night recording forays. I'm very familiar with the 
sound from daytime.

To the peaceful sounds of upland chorus frogs was added the soothing 
sound of a chainsaw, out in the distant darkness somewhere, many hours 
after sunset, someone was clearly cutting firewood. The visions of what 
you can do with a chainsaw when you can't see what it's cutting danced 
in my head. The direction of the sound was all darkness, and a wildlife 
preserve for a fair ways. The sound continued for about 20 minutes 
before shutting off as abruptly as it came. And the upland chorus frogs 
continued their song.
