Took a walk along the river Plym today. Went at low tide to see what would be feeding in the mud. Most of the birds were in the water in the middle.

Cars on the far side of the river Placi was making the noise. Seems to amplify it for some reason.

Ah i see placi. For some reason i thought you meant the noise. Yes the geese and that came over quite good. I was trying out a new external microphone i bought, instead of the built in one. Is more directional so should be quite good. Although the noise from across the river was a distraction for me.

That could well be because the new microphone is a stereo one nuthatch. I did notice that as well.

Ah! I see, Willpar :nod: :yes:

I liked it when the scenes and so the sound changed from the water to the field and back again.. like they do in the films.. I thought it was very good - effective :D :trophy:
