Fascinating birdsong in the Congo rainforest

Notes:

This is a field recording I made in a village in Central Gabon on my expedition to the Congo basin rainforest. We stopped to buy fruit from a village and it sounded so good that we decided to spend the night with a very welcoming local family. 5 minutes from the main road we found this gorgeous wild banana grove where a myriad birds were singing.
