1a. Great Snipe
Posted by: "Geoff Sample" orphean2001

Let�s take a break from all the tech stuff and get stuck into a Polish peat
bog! Here�s a new soundcloud posting, with some notes on how the recording was
made, I�d like to share with the group.
This may be the most beautiful, mysterious and beguiling of all choruses to be
heard in Europe - Great Snipe lekking. Highly subjective I know, but sometimes
you�ve got to stick your neck out to be heard:-)

Geoff,
Very nice. Suggests to me the snapping or crackling of Manakins on the lek in
Costa Rica.

2a. Re: Pond Station, A Live Hydrophone Web-stream

Fascinating, and nearby, too (I'm over the river in Dutchess County). One
thing I would find interesting is being able to hear the above-water
sounds, too, particularly when trying to identify specific frog calls.
Knowing how each species sounds, both above and below the water line would
be very enlightening (not that I intend to become a fish, but just for the
sake of knowing).
Can one visit your station and see this setup in person?

3a. The recording with the Great Snipe
Posted by: "Arnþór Helgason"

A wonderful recording. The birdname Snipe wonders me as we have a
completely different sound for this bird here in Iceland, reference: the
attached links, recording from 2011:

I am a little bit clumsy when reading the screen for soundcloud. What
kind of mics were used?
Best regards and congratulations:
