Birds and claps, Nantes
Apr 11, 2020, 09:06 AM
Nantes lockdown sound recorded by Kevin Lemoine.
"I live with 6 roommates in Nantes, this sound was recorded around 8pm, at sunset. The grand silence of the first two days was replaced by more and more bird songs, reminding me of the countryside I grew up in.
"We live next to a supermarket and witnessed the first panic-shopping waves, then people avoiding themselves, and now wearing gloves and masks.
"Right now in France, we enter in the fourth week of quarantine but the epidemic isn't very present in the western half of the country."
