    There is a very interesting series of calls coming from the reedbeds at the Villebon lake, I think there are probably five or more species heard in this clip.

    There is definitely a Chiffchaff, plus a Wren and Black Cap, but what is more interesting is the sound in the background, could well be Frogs.
