Bullfrogs mating
May 28, 2020, 01:28 PM
Vancouver, Canada lockdown sound recorded by Laura Barron.
"My refuge during the pandemic has been the park right behind my home, where I walk every morning with my husband before work. There, every day I'm bathed in birdsong, rose fragrance, and other delights. But the biggest surprise was this bullfrog mating ritual that I'd never before witnessed, right in the middle of the city! I have been using this time to slow down, be more mindful, and pay closer attention to the world around me. And as a writer/musician, soundscape has always been a way to ground myself. Meanwhile, I've also been bolstered, throughout this unusual time, by the myriad of artistic responses, like these, which have been documenting, reflecting, and making sense of our current circumstances. So, I've chosen to track these in a blog called These Adagio Days: https://theseadagiodays.tumblr.com"
