When people think of the desert, often they think of a place devoid of living creatures where all that can be heard is the whistle of wind blowing over sand dunes and through canyons. This couldn't be further from the truth; the desert is teeming with an abundance of wildlife, including different species of birds, frogs and mammals. DESERT SOLITUDES, recorded by Bernie Krause and Ruth Happel in New Mexico's Sonoran/Chihuahuan desert, provides an audio snapshot of the biome and all the natural riches it has to offer. Included are the sounds of coyotes, Great Horned owls, frogs, falcons, mockingbirds and a wide variety of songbirds like sparrows, wrens and warblers.
