Striated Grassbird






I clicked this Striated Grassbird at Nalban in February 2011. The bird was singing beautifully. I didn't have the recorder at that time to record it. Ever since I wanted to record it. I got the chance in Kaziranga at last when I saw it again in Burapahar. Didn't get a photograph of the bird as it was perched at a distance. But the call came loud and clear, albeit a little marred by some cicadas in the background. There were some hoolock gibbons shouting in the background. But these add to the overall effect in a positive way, I suppose.

The recording was done with my Marantz and Sennheiser K6/ME66. The sound is post processed on Soundforge with some fade in and out and basic volume raising.
