Lapwing Display 25th March MixPre - 903 01 by Gavin Vella published on 2020-03-26T12:08:03Z One of my all-time favourite moments during a Nocturnal Survey on the Gwent Levels. In the background you'll hear several key species, Lapwing being the main displaying over the fields but Snipe, Teal, Swan, Mallard, Woodcock, Little Owl and Bat Sp's also in the background. With the Lockdown I was able to get a cleaner recording as there were no planes going over but I couldn't escape the sound of a local farmer who was still spreading his fields, hence the droning sound in the background.

You feel so close to the lapwing and the little details you wouldn't normally get to hear. The drone kind of works as part of the whole thing too. 2021-05-26T18:04:58Z Comment by Gavin Vella Bat Sp 2020-03-27T17:53:56Z Comment by Gavin Vella Water Rail 2020-03-27T13:50:03Z Comment by Gavin Vella Little Owls 2020-03-27T13:49:47Z Comment by Gavin Vella Lapwing wingbeats 2020-03-27T13:49:29Z Comment by Gavin Vella Mute Swans in distance 2020-03-27T13:49:17Z Comment by Gavin Vella Bat Sp in the background 2020-03-27T13:48:11Z Comment by Gavin Vella Snipe in the Background 2020-03-27T13:47:56Z
