Bonus! Russian Wilderness- Buzzing Meadow Morning

Sound By Nature

I recorded this in the meadow at the south end of Taylor Lake in the Russian Wilderness, Klamath National Forest, Siskiyou County, California.

It was a warm morning for the elevation of the meadow(6500') thanks to the cloud cover overnight. The bumblebees, butterflies, and other pollinators were out early, flying from flower to flower getting their of fill of nectar. Cows grazed out of sight, hidden from view by the many willow thickets which populated the meadow, their presence betrayed by the clanging of their cowbells.

I laid the microphone down in the grass amongst the abundant white flowers blanketing the meadow(I've been trying to identify them but have been unable to). As you listen imagine yourself laying down in the meadow with the bumblebees and other pollinators buzzing all around. I recommend listening with headphones for the best listening experience.
