Sounds of nature on Youtube

YouTube is becoming more impressive every day. There are people uploading hours and hours of field recordings (which don't even pose any copyright issues).

If you search for "sounds of nature" (without quotation marks), these videos pop up, and if you also add the -music keyword (with a minus sign in front), you eliminate all that nonsense made up of natural sounds with infamous ambient music over them.

You just have to pay attention to the sampling rate: some, to save space and therefore loading time, reduce it to 22050, but others manage to keep it at 44100 even on long videos.

Given the weather these days, there wouldn't be any need. However, as an example, here are 10 (ten!) hours of rain and thunder (maybe next summer will be good for you...)
