Dawn Chorus

This ambient recording captures the awakening of bird-life at daybreak in the British countryside.

This atmospheric collection of sound recordings includes: the magic of Sussex woodland unfolds at dawn; thrushes, warblers, wrens and many other woodland birds; early morning in the New Forest; and dawn over a Dartmoor landscape in May.
