You can hear the mosquitoes

Sydney lockdown sound recorded by Cameron Webb.

"Sydney is close to total lockdown with all but essential workers encouraged to stay at home. This recording was made along a path through some urban wetlands. Usually the sound of cars, leaf blowers, and aircraft fill the air. Today it was so quiet you hear the mosquitoes."
