Recorder Drop Bag and Mics Set in PInes to Capture Sounds of Approaching Storm

 A cold front is pushing its way through the North Florida area and will bring with it winds and rain.  We are under a tornado watch.

I though the weather would create interesting recordings and set up a drop bag in the middle of an open area under a group of really tall slash pine.

The sounds of wind through pine needles and rain reduce my stress and replace any anxiety I might have with a sense of belonging, wellness and security.

Ellie Mae loves the rain too and she is snuggled up on the loveseat in between several warm pillows.

The drop rig is made up of an older Sony PCM M10 recorder, a pair of micro Clippy stereo omnidirectional microphones with windbubbles and a waterproof bag, all assembled together and attached to an understory tree in the pine grove.

Can't wait to hear the storm sounds!
