I'm very interested in this owl you can hear. Where in the track is that? I=
just can't find it.

Peter,
The rain and echoes are on the original, but below the background
noises. I used multiple noise reduction passes using different
background noise profiles and what was left was lifted about 36dB
along with the rain and reverb. It is probably what you would have
heard if there was no background or mic hiss and you wound the gsin up
Message: 36dB.

I can't do anything about the distance effects, but does it help with
identification? The other effect seems to be an exaggeration of the
stereo placing.
There's an owl sound in there as well but I didn't bring that up as
they don't enhance well. I've tried with my own owls and they sound
mushy at a distance.
