Come along to a wooded patch that sounds like a forest. The sounds echo between the trunks. You will hear dozens of birds singing, woodpeckers drumming, roe deer grunting, trees creaking and much more. The CD booklet explains the various sounds every step of the way. The recordings cover a period from mid-February to early June. For those who wish to not only enjoy but also to learn something, this CD offers you the opportunity to hone your bird identification skills, for example.

de Volkskrant (newspaper): 'Meticulously composed' and 'The Dutch forest sounds much bigger and wilder than it is.'

Het Vogeljaar (magazine): 'conspicuous for its clarity’ and ‘never a dull moment.'

Limburgs landschap (magazine): 'it’s fun to imagine yourself in a forest and, with the liner notes in hand, to identify the fascinating sounds.'.
