I'm Spencer, a guy in his forties who likes to walk in nature, make field recordings and take pictures. Come along on a walk with me to escape your day-to-day or fall asleep. I always enjoyed the sounds of on-site journalism so wanted to share nature walking sounds with a little chat about where I'm going and what's around me.

    Pond Farm Pottery, Guerneville

    I visit Pond Farm Pottery in Guerneville, California. Pond Farm Pottery was founded by Marguerite Wildenhain in 1942 after her escape from Germany. Marguerite studied at the Bauhaus and brought its combination of craft mastery and artistry to this remote but notable studio and school. Read more about Pond Farm Pottery and its history here.⁠ This wasn’t the most successful recording: lots of mosquitos, strong steady wind in the trees above, and airplanes arriving into SFO had me editing 30 minutes down to 15; but it was worth the visit for the views on the drive up and the peace on arrival. Enjoy! Pond Farm Brewery, San Rafael

    Alpine Lake, Lake Lagunitas, Sky Oaks Meadow Road

    A walk around the Mount Tamalpais Watershed area. I visit Alpine Lake, Lake Lagunitas and Sky Oaks Meadow Road. There's turkeys and woodpeckers around. I think someone gets hit by a mountain bike? Getting used to a 3 channel setup and waiting for a better windshield for my stereo mic to show up in the mail. Hoping you enjoy getting away from your day-to-day with me.
