RecordingWild Amazon – Rainforest soundscape
Artist:
Reserva territorial Madre de Dios, PeruRecommended charity: Junglekeepers
Notes:
The soundscape of the Amazon rainforest is incredibly lush, diverse and immersive, even on a hot afternoon when humidity is almost 100%. The insect chorus is constant and piercing – cicadas, crickets, flies, bees, wasps, beetles and many others are constantly making noise. The birds are a bit lazier during the day but their calls can be heard echoing on the rainforest floor, from various distances and elevations. Toucans, pihas, macaws, parakeets, antbirds and scores of other species form a beautiful and talented ensemble.
