I wouldn't call not using a dish a mistake. I never use one. Parabolic
mics are used when you want to reach for an individual species, and
separate it as much as possible from the environment. That's one kind
of recording. Another kind, what I like to do, is recording
soundscapes, a wide-angle panorama of the whole scene.
