A common bird in Sweden, usually a good singer, but this one is a Pavarotti compared to
others I've heard.
It was mid of June 1991, sunny and lots of mosquitoes, which makes it hard to hold a parabol
without handling noise. This blackcap was sitting about 20 meters away, about 10 meters
above ground, singing with an energy never heard before.

The equipment used was a Telinga PRO3 with the first generation stereo microphone.
The DAT was a Sony TCD-D3. It was digitally transferred to my PC by a Tascam DA-P1.
I used WaveLab to do filtering (-6db at 3khz) - normalized to -6db and finally
had it decoded to MP3 at 112kbps 48k, HQ.

Using a modem, it takes a while. It's worth it. Then use good headphones, sit back
and enjoy. Don't play louder than what it would be in real life.

All the best,
Klas.
