This track was recorded at Seelands at the huge Water Gum (Tristaniopsis laurina) - one of the three Sanctuary Trees depicted by Rochelle Summerfield for the WATER exhibition. It was only accessible by kayak from the river. A crisp winter's day floating, and recording surrounded by inquisitive Brown Honeyeaters.
