Summary

Description
Two pairs of early-returning geese on the ice of a still-frozen lake in an urban park. The closest pair was approximately 10m away, the other pair about 30m. One member of the nearby pair (presumably the female) was mostly silent and was sitting down on the ice for most of the recording. The other goose (presumably the male) was doing most of the vocalizing. Periodically he would give a grating crescendo call with a loud finish (e.g. heard clearly at 3:04.5, but present throughout the recording). While doing this call, he would throw his head back, pointed up to the sky. Immediately after these calls, he generally would nip at the back or neck of the other member of the pair.
Calls from a member of the other pair (presumably the male) in the background, slowly getting closer. One member of each pair had been observed fighting eachother several minutes before.
Airplane interlude about halfway through the recording. Light filtering below 400Hz.
