 Mellow sounds and vast migrations | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 8:57

This week's podcast is all about contrasts. We go from nature's soothing sounds in Botswana's Nxamaseri to the bustle of animals on the move as thousands of wildebeest embark on the famed Serengeti migration.

 A day at the river | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 9:09

This week's podcast takes you down to the river. Experience the sounds of nature on the banks of Botswana's Boteti River and listen as elephants take a cooling dip. To end off, have a go at guessing the mystery sound in the final clip.

 On the banks of the Boteti | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 09:23

Wind sweeps through the trees beside Botswana's Boteti River, before the setting sun ushers in a chorus of cicadas and bullfrogs. We're ending off with something a little different. No clues or hints. Can you identify the sound at the end of this episode? Keep an eye on our Facebook page for the answer.

 Birds and Baboons | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 09:31

Insects chirp and baboons bark as night turns to day in South Africa's Northern Cape while the fluttering of wings resounds besides a pool of water near Botswana's Boteti river.

 Gannets on the attack | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 10:09

The Sardine Run is in full swing off South Africa's eastern coast, so this week we're bringing you closer to the action - from the splashes of diving gannets to the gentle trickle of a waterfall as it flows into the sea.

 Sardine spectacle | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 10:13

South Africa's annual Sardine Run is about to kick off. In this week's ambient audio podcast, we bring you some of the diverse sounds of this phenomenal event - from the peaceful, rolling waves in Port St Johns to the abrasive call of Cape gannets and the loud splashes as they dive into the water (make sure you listen out for the loud thud of a shark swimming straight into one of our cameramen!) For more info on this spectacular marine event, visit the Earth-Touch blog.

 Buffalo on the move | File Type: audio/mpeg | Duration: 10:09

Listen to the sounds of a buffalo herd rumbling across the flooded plains of Botswana's Okavango Delta.
