about

Field recording at Klein Begijnhof Gent at 8:00am.

Two untreated long pieces and four extra short pieces recorded early on a Sunday morning in the Klein Begijnhof/Widows Court in Gent. It's a place where widows of soldiers used to find refuge. It's a place of worship and tranquility. In these pieces you will hear Eurasian Blackcap, Common Chiffchaff, Eurasian Wren, Common Wood-Pigeon, Eurasian Collared-Dove, Eurasian Blackbird, Common Swift, Short-toed Treecreeper, Eurasian Blue Tit.

"It is estimated that almost 60% of UK swifts have disappeared over the last 25 years. Huge declines of insects, habitat loss, and the impacts of climate change – with extreme weather affecting breeding cycles and migration – are the main challenges affecting migratory birds."
