Relaxing New Zealand Birdsong - Kotuku Awa

Kotuku Awa or Arnold River - Moana, West Coast, New Zealand
Relaxing hour of peaceful birdsong captured in a forest on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. Great for studying, relaxation, sleepless nights and peaceful meditation.
The Arnold River drains out of Lake Bunner and enters the lower part of the Grey River near Stillwater. The river water is seldom discolored, with the river banks in parts covered with native forest, other parts have willow trees over hanging into the water.

    They say West is the best. It's hard to beat it's sheer natural beauty. It was the first place I stayed after returning from several years overseas and it was the best way to reintroduce myself to Aotearoa. It is such a beautiful part of the world

    Kia ora Lawrence, would I be able to use a few minutes of this sound behind a Kickstarter video I'm creating to help fund my picture book 'Kowhai and The Giants' (its a a story about trees). I would credit you in the video. I've taken heaps of photos in open sanctuaries but have not learned how to use the video portion of my camera yet (just working it out now). So I am missing sound.... this is great vast sounding NZ bird noise
