Short recording - a young couple in a block of flats

A lucky recording I made last night (just before 11pm) just outside a small block of flats while I was taking a walk
in the neighbourhood. I always carry a recording device (or two) when I'm outside at night once the weather warms
up - you never know what you're going to hear. People leave their windows open at night but don't seem to realise
how easily they can be heard outside. Many get 'caught out' like this in cooler European countries like the UK.
I recorded this one with a small USB, which I placed just off the pavement/sidewalk, in front of the building.
I've noted the location, so I might catch them again.

Recording date: 8 May 2018.

Realy cool. Nice catch sndprv!
I like those sounds you can hear from inside in summer when the people let their windows lean on.

You have to turn your volume up to enjoy this, but it sounds promising! Do go back and catch them again if you can. Also if you can get a physical description of them.

Amazing, thanks for this! I literally try this all the time in the UK and have had no luck... although I did once last summer but unfortunately wasn’t able to record anything worthwhile.

Here’s to hoping that it’s a hot one this year ;)

Thanks sndprv, a really good and lucky capture. I walk around forages of a night (when I'm able) but never seem to catch anyone! I sometimes wonder whether to just stay in one locatoion and not try and cover too big an area. I beginning to think it's more likely to get a capture if I choose a likely window and consentrate my efforts there. Thanks for your post 😎
