  • 193 - 160: Gold Bluffs Beach- All Night On The High Tide Line

    I recorded this on a cloudy night at the beginning of spring on Gold Bluffs Beach in Prairie Creek Redwoods State Park, Humboldt County, California. The wind was light and blowing offshore, and through the night the tide went from high to low and back to high by morning. The recording started at about 9 p.m. and continues till a bit before sunrise at about 7 a.m.


    This recording is entirely free of noise pollution.

  • 192 - 159: Wind In the Grass at McArthur Swamp

    This was recorded on a clear and sunny winter afternoon at McArthur Swamp, Shasta County, California. Gusty wind rushed across the grassland, rustling the tall dry grasses and swooshing past their stiff stalks.


    McArthur swamp is an area of protected wetlands and grasslands adjacent to the Tule River and Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park located just north of the small town of McArthur. The area provides wintering habitat, essential food, breeding grounds, and nesting areas for waterfowl and other birds, and is an important stopover for migratory birds on the Pacific Flyway.

  • 191 - Bonus! Busy Backyard Bird Feeder

    I recorded this at my home in the small town of McCloud in Siskiyou County, California. It was a relatively warm winter morning, and a flock of Evening Grosbeaks was busily eating a breakfast of sunflower seeds from a feeder hanging from the branch of a birch tree in my backyard. I placed a microphone on either side of the trunk of the tree(tree ears style) and recorded the action.

  • 190 - 158: Breezy Winter Afternoon Beside Big Lake

    I recorded this on a breezy winter afternoon beside Big Lake in the northeast corner of Shasta County, California. The sky started off mostly cloudy with rain showers to the west, but the showers dissipated as they moved eastward towards the lake, and the clouds broke up allowing the sun to shine through.


    In this episode the constant lapping of small wind waves against the tule lined shore is punctuated by the soft sound of the wind blowing through the bare branches of nearby trees and the gentle rustling of dry grasses. Various species of ducks call as they bob on the surface in large flocks far out on the lake. Geese are heard in the distance calling from the ground, with the occasional flock heard flying high above. Listen for the solitary call of a Red Tailed Hawk, and distant flocks of Sandhill Cranes in flight.


    There was an unfortunate amount of air traffic the day this was recorded, but I liked this recording too much not to share it with you. I hope you like it as well and don't mind the air traffic too much.


    I recently got a new production assistant! She is a sweet dog named Molly and she was a big help with this episode. I look forward to her help with many, many future recordings.

  • 189 - 157: January Evening at the Mouth of the Klamath River

    This was recorded on a cloudy January evening during an outgoing tide on the beach beside the mouth of the Klamath River in Del Norte County, California. The steady roar of large surf breaking in the distance is punctuated by the waves pushing in against the powerful current of the river and rhythmically crashing against the shore.

    The river was running high and was colored chocolate brown with the abundance of sediment it was carrying from the recently breached Copco No. 1 dam far upriver near the California-Oregon border. The one-hundred year old dam is the last of four to be breached as part of the largest dam removal and river restoration project in American history. As the water behind the dam is drawn down, the first step of its eventual removal, the massive quantity of sediment that built up over its lifetime is being carried downstream for its long overdue meeting with the Pacific Ocean. The removal of the dams will return the river to a free-flowing, natural state and will restore spawning habitat for salmon, steelhead, and many other fish.
