Two of a group of albumen prints I've acquired with Bunyan/Elstow associations. Internal dating indicates 1874 to 1881. No photographer, but the likelihood is that these are the work of George Downes d. 1879. (1)

I ended up listening to century-old #nightingales in the garden until dusk fell, mingled with the sound of the evening #birds. No words for how beautiful and poignant.
(The reverse of this 78 is a recording of dawn birdsong. I guess I should get up early one morning...)
And then I was going to play "A Nightingale Sang in Berkeley Square" but instead opted for another favourite: "Nightingales, actually recorded in Beatrice Harrison's garden, Oxted". Listen to how that century-old birdsong mingles with the evening birds today ❤️
