What a treat Abhijit!  Lovely sounds of a tropical environment, the
bird calls come out very well with only the internal mics of the
LS-11 so I guess you must have been close up.

I also have this problem with Abhijit's recordings but the way around
it on a Mac is to go to File and Save Page As, then save as mp3.
This recording is 1.5 minutes approx.  Worth listening to!
