Well I'd like to say that happens every morning, but it doesn't. :-) I
sometimes hear bulls bugling up in the hills across the valley during
rutting season, and occasionally a few cows with a calf come near the
house, but nothing like that ever happened before. I suspect the
weather and the extreme darkness may have had something to do with it.
But it was a case of being very very lucky to be up with the recorder
ready at that time.
If it's any consolation, the attempt at the dawn chorus was a bust. I
mostly got the sounds of horses, trucks, a burro about a mile away, 4
dogs in various locations, a chain saw, road machinery, and the morning
jets from L.A. heading east. And a couple crows. :-) I used to think
it was quiet up there, but listening through headphones and a pair of
good mics changed my mind.
