The Council of Bliss

This stereo field recording captures the soothing sounds of birdsong during a light shower of rain. Listen as the gentle pitter-patter of raindrops and the occasional heavier plops of drips from a nearby tree blend together with birds signing in a harmonious symphony.

Whether you're looking for a calming background for meditation or simply want to escape the hustle and bustle of daily life, this video is the perfect remedy.
