Dawn chorus in the Forest of Scotland

Scottish summer dawn choruses like this one last long into the morning and feature beautifully exuberant birdsong. There’s a multitude of birds singing at various distances which creates a balanced mix of foreground, mid and background layers. There’s a faint but constant buzzing sound coming from a gorse bush nearby where a variety of insects are feasting on nectar.
