I was a little confused on how I would make my soundscape unique and not just an outdoor audio and honestly I really did just make it about nature sounds so I’m not sure if I did. But I really like what I ended up doing. I was trying to think up good things to record and realized I should have recorded all the people hanging out on the commons during the eclipse but I didn’t end up doing that as I didn’t think of it until after the eclipse had happened as I was so engrossed in it. I really do regret it though I think it would have made for a great soundscape. I do like how mine came out though as I really enjoy birds. While I know the only actual audio of the outdoors that I captured was my footsteps I took from a list of birds I heard outside. I have an app that listens for birds and tells me what ones are in the area. So I listened before I started walking and took from the list of birds I got. The only exceptions were the house finch and the black capped chickadee as I had heard each of those a few days prior and wanted to add them. I really love birds and certain bird calls always make me feel like it’s summer time because we have so many loud birds back home. So with the weather warming up I thought it was only right to highlight one of my favorite parts of summer.
