OK, uploading three files as I type, although it'll take a while for them to 
complete. These are three raw files from the 788T, interleaved B-Format wav 
files at 96/24. There are all sorts of extraneous noises from various sources, 
so don't be tempted to play too loud. The mic was in end-fire mode, pointing 
towards the place on the balcony where the bees were congregating and you 
should get street sounds from the rear, as well as some interesting bird 
chirps. The loud metallic rattle in one of the takes happens when a blackbird 
lands on a support that sometimes has a hanging basket on it and the rattle is 
the metal suspension hook. The birds were not happy with the bees and didn't 
hang around, so don't expect any melodious singing from them; just the odd 
annoyed tweet. Oh, and I think there's a plane fly-over in one of them as well. 
Location is North West London.

The progress bar says 37% complete with 47 minutes to go, so I'm off to do the 
washing-up while it completes. (My wife's been baking and it's my payment for 
the fantastic food that I do the dishes.)

I've got some good Florida birds that I'll dig out and post later. A Carolina 
Wren and Red-shouldered Hawk having a bit of a barney. Lots of movement with a 
nice insect-y background.

All the best,

John
