Nature recording is the practice of capturing sounds from the natural environment, such as birdsong, wind, water, and animal calls. This activity can be done using various recording devices, including handheld recorders and microphones, to document the rich audio landscape of different ecosystems. The recordings can serve multiple purposes, including scientific research, education, and artistic expression. They help researchers study wildlife behavior and habitat, while also allowing listeners to experience the beauty of nature from anywhere. Nature recording is often associated with field recording and can contribute to conservation efforts by raising awareness about environmental issues.
