This morning's dawn chorus in the centre of Richmond

Stirring from my slumber around 4: 30am this morning I marvelled at the call of a avian soloist heralding the coming of a new day. The sound was so beautiful. Not recording it simply wasn't an option.

So here's part of this morning's dawn chorus in Richmond, complete with me coughing occasionally, and my guide dog shaking! It was unfortunately recorded only in mono, but the sound captured by my iPhone is crisp and clear.
