Sounds from my first forest walk at night in a reserve forest adjoining the Kudremukh National Park. Led by a biologist and the local field expert, we were there to see/hear crickets. It was 7.30 pm on an October evening, pitch dark as we walked, and I realized how a tropical forest can be quite noisy!

Manik, the driver, was going on and on, maybe for the whole first hour of the drive about how he saw on the news that someone caught a three kilogram ganga eelish maach (the fish the whole region seemingly mouth waters for). He deemed this preposterous and spent the time talking, essentially to himself, figuring out how to catch the fish, and then really delved into strategizing how to cut the fish. As he was having this conversation we drove by something that I thought was a huge fire. I instantly got quite stressed out and asked if everything was alright over there -- as if he would know differently than me. He looked at me, unfazed, and said they were definitely just burning their trash. It was in that moment that I realized that even though I had learned so much in the many months I had been in the region, there was still so much to learn.

Sounds from my visit to Hunucmá, a nearby town in the Yucatán Peninsula, Mexico. The sound recording captures fragments of everyday life in Hunucmá, a busy town and an agricultural center in the region. We hear the competing sounds of birds, cars, traffic lights, and pedestrians walking by the plaza and the central market.
