Nature Sound World - Luontoäänien maailma

I made this recording at the beginning of June last year. The calm and warm days of early summer are the best treatment for humans after a long winter. The light and warmth of the sun, the buzz of bumblebees in blossom and the peaceful singing of birds make the moment unforgettable. I like these moments and they should be savoured.

Early summer. In the distance, thunder can be heard as a starling feeds her chicks in her nest box. Insects are actively buzzing in the flowers. The soundscape of a hot summer day.

An atmospheric summer morning in the forest. The cuckoo and the song thrush are the first singers of the morning and the nightjar the last of the night.

A May night on a reedy shore is full of life and sound. Sedge warblers, water rail and moor frogs are the main soloists in a magnificent chorus.

A pair of cranes announce their existence on a forest meadow in May. Their magnificent sound carries far and wide.

There is no quiet time in the North's bright spring night. Night and morning singers blend into a pleasant mixed choir before the dawn. A wonderful time!

The spring day is turning towards evening. The atmosphere in the forest is peaceful and pleasant. A short spring night is about to begin.

The field edge wakes up slowly in the spring morning. The song of the redwing can be heard through the morning. The gulls come to feed in the fields. A pleasant, peaceful atmosphere.

The common redstart ( Phoenicurus phoenicurus ) is a great soloist of summer nights. Her atmospheric and melodious singing is soothing to listen to. Here he is singing next to a nest tree on a warm and still early June morning.

The European robin (Erithacus rubecula) is a great singer to set the mood for spring mornings. Its bright and peaceful song can be heard from inside the forest as dawn breaks.

A calm spring morning in April. Tawny owls greet the dawn from their nesting forest, northern lapwings race each other and the redwing begins its song from the birch canopy.

The spring wet forest soundscape is interesting and rich. This time, the common snipes ( Gallinago gallinago ) play the leading role. Their voices are funny and memorable.

In April, the  northern lapwings ( Vanellus vanellus ) return. Their joyful flight and funny sounds can be heard in the spring fieldscape.

A peaceful spring morning in the forest. You don't want to leave here.

Black grouse males arrive at the traditional lekking site just after dawn. In the near-darkness, the roosters begin to hiss, followed shortly afterwards by the familiar bubbling call. One of the finest shows of the spring begins.

Listen to a quail on a summer night. A quail is definitely one of the fun night birds of midsummer. Here is a small sound sample of a summer night from the edge of a field.

The night of the reed is full of life.

On warm nights in midsummer, the pine forests come alive. In the darkest hours of the night, The European nightjar take over the sound space. The flapping of wings and the whirring sounds are enchanting to listen to. Welcome to the atmosphere of a summer night.

A calm spring morning. Blackbird and cuckoo singing in the new green birch forest.

Lake ice crackles in the background as the soundscape of spring begins to play as the sun rises.

What remains of the night's rain are raindrops on tree branches, falling to the ground at a leisurely pace as the morning dawns. The warm, still, moist air makes the birds sing and greet the rising sun. Abundant greenery fills the landscape.
