There is one thing that gets me here, Klas.
As you describe your perspectives on your craft, including descriptions of =
your personal approach, you are defining yourself as a creative artist high=
ly concerned with aesthetics.

By questioning, how "do I want him to hear my 'best' raven passing by...," =
you describe yourself as an artist even further.
You have taken time to filter your best work from the rest - and that is de=
finitely part of a creative process.

I read somewhere recently, the difference between scientific writing and cr=
eative writing is the use of metaphor. Can that also be applied to nature r=
ecording?
