Map of Toulouse to locate the place of the recording

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!
