Stereo microphones transmitting from Flevopark, a public green space and nature reserve which was previously marshland around the Zuiderzee.
This area in Amsterdam east was once a marshy, tidal landscape, before it was drained and reclaimed in the early C20th in efforts to manage water levels and expand usable land.
In spring the prevailing sound of the dawn chorus at this location are the resident birds (blackbirds, tits, robins, wrens) as well as those in migration (such as chiffchaffs, blackcaps, willow warblers). Usually the herons and cormorants are hunting along the waterfront in the early morning here too.
