Happy Sounds - A Serena Nature Sounds Podcast

Not far from what is now called Sydney, on 7 May 1770, Captain James Cook sailed along Australia’s Eastern seaboard and described in his journal "some pretty high land which projected out in three bluff points.” One of the three “bluff points” was called Tudibaring in the local Aboriginal tongue, purported to mean 'place where the waves pound like a beating heart', perhaps because of the flat rock shelves at the base of the high bluff that the surf continuously pounds. This recording was taken during a hot summer afternoon thunderstorm in a quiet New South Wales coastal neighborhood that now hugs the rim of this headland.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
