Context
This precise place is actually one of the city's borders. It makes the connection between Toulouse and the city called Balma, which is in the North-East.
On the photo above, you can see the Hers[1] river, and a bridge, on which the metro passes (hear it at 01:49). Near this precise point on the map is a big commercial complex, lots of companies and an entrance to the highway. So this is obviously not the place you would expect to hear the birds. Yet, here they are! 🐦⬛
- ↑ pronounced “èrss” (or /ɛʁs/ according to the IPA audio chart and the IPA vowels audio chart)
