2022.12.11 A Secret Dawn. Early Summer. (Full Version) by Hearing Beings published on 2022-12-15T04:19:55Z Why "A Secret Dawn"? Purely because I will not reveal the locations of places like this. Lately, I've been finding that national parks and conservations parks are nowadays, more and more, not necessarily the best places to record natural soundscapes, unless they are very remote. Not just because of anthropogenic noise, but also because of anthropogenic environmental damage. (No doubt increasingly heavy marketing by National Parks and Wildlife, especially to the 4WD mob, has had an impact, here. National Parks are not only valued as an ecological and environmental asset. They are also very highly valued as an economic commodity, to be marketed like any other. Where is the foresight? Foresight is a talent that, in general, I fear, my country very sadly lacks.) In any event, I very much do hope to be able to share with you future recordings from many other unnoticed and unexpected "secret locations" like this one.
