I have another soundscape for you!
Every evening around dusk, flocks of birds gather at Venus Pool, a nature reserve in the care of Shropshire Ornithological Society.
Phil Pickin, a Hello You listener and member of the society, suggested it would be a good time and place to record a soundscape, and invited me along. So on Tuesday evening, we settled down in one of the hides at Venus Pool, to watch and listen.


As Phil said to me, it’s a good place to let your brain slip out of gear for a while. I hope your brain can slip out of gear as you listen. Like all of the soundscapes, it’s best enjoyed using headphones or earbuds, as it’s recorded in lovely wide stereo.
