Episode 68: Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park- Roaring...

Sound By Nature ·

2021/04/03

This recording was gathered on a chilly night in early spring beside the campfire at my campsite in the Crystal Springs Campground in Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park, Shasta County, California. A large deciduous tree had fallen across the trail not far from my campsite, and the park maintenance workers had cut out the section blocking the trail, which I used for firewood. I am not quite sure what kind of tree it was, but the wood, some of which was studded with acorns by busy acorn woodpeckers,

Sound By Nature ·

2021/03/31

This was recordedon an early spring morning next to the stone fish traps at Ja She Creek in Ahjumawi Lava Springs State Park, Shasta County, California. Ja She Creek is more of a series of interconnected ponds than a creek in the classic sense, all of which are fed by countless underwater springs. The stone fish traps were constructed by the indigenous people who have inhabited the area for thousands of years, the Ajumawi(as spelled on the tribal website) band of the Pit River Tribe, for whom the

Bonus! Thundersnow on the Pacific Crest Trail

2021/03/12

This was recorded on a late winter afternoon along the Pacific Crest Trail in a heavily snow laden stand of massive old growth conifers in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Shasta County, California. It had snowed all day and I was packing up my gear and getting ready to hike back several miles through the new fallen snow when unexpectedly, and much to my delight, a rare rumble of thunder rolled through the forest. Luckily, I was able to capture two subsequent thunderclaps in the snow, which I

Sound By Nature ·

2021/03/01

This was recorded on a blustery night in a stand of tall Red Fir and White Fir trees near Little Castle Lake in Castle Crags Wilderness, Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. I was camped out in the snow not far from where this recording was made, and I set my recording rig up to record the wind overnight. The night was very windy and I was camped closer to a standing dead tree than I should have been, so I laid awake most of the night hoping that a branch or even the whole

Bonus! Red-winged Blackbirds at Lower Klamath...

Sound By Nature ·

2021/02/19

This bonus episode is composed of three recordings of Red-Winged Blackbirds I gathered at Lower Klamath National Wildlife Refuge near the California-Oregon border in Siskiyou County, California. This wildlife refuge is not remotely located and is popular with birders, and as such there is quite a bit of noise pollution. So instead of giving you one long recording full of passing jets, airplanes, cars, trucks, trains, and people ooh-ing and aah-ing at the abundant birds, I put this together from

2021/02/14

This was recorded on a clear and sunny morning in a stand of Red and White Fir trees, after it had snowed the night before, in Castle Crags Wilderness, Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. As the sun warmed the snow covered trees towering above, it began to melt the snow, which rained down onto the snowy forest floor.

Episode 63: Campfire on a Cold and Breezy Winter Night

Sound By Nature ·

2021/01/29

This was recorded at a remote campsite near the Pacific Crest Trail in densely forested mountains in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Shasta County California. It was a cold, clear, moonlit night with a steady breeze blowing through the trees. I set up the microphone beside the fire to record late at night after the air traffic had died down, and after I went to sleep nearby, so you may hear the sound of a sleeping bag rustling here and there.

Episode 62: Squaw Valley Creek and Tom Neal Creek

Sound By Nature ·

2021/01/17

This was recorded on a sunny and mild winter day at the confluence of Squaw Valley Creek and Tom Neal Creek in Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Shasta County, California. The swiftly flowing, rocky creeks provide perfect habitat for the American Dipper, a small bird that feeds by diving under fast moving water, often white water, in search of food. Both males and females sing year round, and they are North America's only truly aquatic songbird. Listen for their songs over the sound of the rushing

Episode 61: Rain and Sleet Near the Snowline

Sound By Nature ·

2021/01/10

This was recorded on a winter day with rain and sleet falling in a densely forested, mountainous area just below the snowline near the Pacific Crest Trail south of Girard Ridge in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest , Shasta County, California. Though a slushy accumulation gathered on the ground and in the trees, the true snowline was about two hundred vertical feet above the spot this recording was made. This is an unsettling time to be an American. I recorded this on the day our Capitol building

Bonus! Curious Raven in the Rain

Sound By Nature ·

2021/01/05

This was recorded on a rainy day in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Shasta County, California. I made a small hut to cover my microphone while it was raining, and a raven stopped by to inspect my work. The raven made some comments while performing it's inspection, but an unfortunate language barrier prevents me from being able to accurately translate what it had to say. I just hope I passed the inspection. --- Support this podcast:

This was recorded on a crisp, clear, and breezy winter day at a secluded forest meadow in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Shasta County, California.

This was recorded just inside the entrance of a lava tube during a storm on the north flank of the Medicine Lake Volcano in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. The gusty wind blew swiftly across the brush and pine trees on the lava field above, while the falling rain gathered and dripped from the jagged lava rock around the lava tube entrance.

This was recorded in a dense forest the morning after the first measurable snowfall of the year beneath massive, towering Sugar Pine trees and other native conifers in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. As the sun hit the treetops above, it warmed the snow laden foliage, which loosened it's icy grip and sent it's load cascading into the branches below and onto the snow covered forest floor.

This was recorded on a breezy autumn day in a densely forested gully near the Pacific Crest Trail in the Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Shasta County, California. Wind blows steadily in the treetops with occasional gusts rustling the dry Pacific Dogwood leaves still clinging to their trees while showers of Douglas Fir needles rain down from the massive trees towering above. There is some unfortunate noise pollution in the form of air traffic in this episode, I hope it doesn't ruin the listening
