~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Mizorogaike is a small pond and wetland located 6 km north of the center of Kyoto city. Many aquatic plants, insects, fish, wild birds, and the mammals live in this area, and some of which remain from the glacial period. I put the recorder and microphones on the shore of the pond to record the early hours of the morning.
