The Pasture from Homestead by Mark Brennan

Old pastures are slowly swallowed by the encroaching forest and as the years go by they eventually make a return to woods. This field recording was made on the edge of an old pasture where a fence still stands. Recorded in two parts and mixed we hear the morning chorus in late March and underneath the drone of the wire fence as it 'sings' in the wind. 'The pasture' is a symbol of what was but also the change in the landscape from nurture by the Homesteaders to a slow return to Nature.

Canadian Visual artist & Nature Recordist, Mark Brennan's, interest in wild places has led him on a path of self discovery. As a landscape painter, naturalist & nature recordist his travels have taken him to Wilderness areas across Canada. From Banff National Park to the windswept coastlines of Labrador, his relationship with nature has deepended over time & with it - his work in wild nature.
