This was recorded at the Upper McCloud River on the McCloud River Trail, Shasta-Trinity National Forest, Siskiyou County, California. It was a warm evening for the time of year, and though the sky was otherwise clear, the air was laden with smoke from the many wildfires burning across Northern California which imbued the evening light with a deep golden hue. Sound By Nature is independently produced by me with production help from my dog and the generous support of listeners like you. If you enjoy the podcast and appreciate natural sounds recorded live on location with no looping, no advertisements, and no corporate overlords, which have been gathered mindfully while strictly following Leave No Trace ethics, perhaps you would like to support the podcast as well. I currently have three supporters, to whom I am extremely grateful, and I would really like to have some more. Can you help me out? I will use your support to improve the listening experience for you and all listeners, and to continue producing episodes in sonically rich natural environments. You can do so by clicking the support link at the end of this podcast description. I have recently used the support I have thus far received to contribute to upgrading my sound equipment which will hopefully result in a noticeable improvement in sound quality in future episodes. Thank you very much to my supporters for your help in making this happen, it's something I have wanted to do for a while now. You can also support the podcast by rating and reviewing it, thank you very much to everyone that already has.  I hope that everyone is staying healthy, both physically and mentally, and I hope that these recordings are able to provide you with a bit of solace during these uncertain and tumultuous times. If these recordings do help you, I would really like to hear about it. I'm also curious how you use the podcast, whether for meditation, sleep, ambience or something else. You can tell me by emailing the podcast at soundbynaturepodcast@gmail.com. Thank you for listening.
