Audiograph's Sound of the Week: Sonoma-Marin Fair

All week long we've been playingthis sound, and asking you to guess what exactly it is and where exactly in the Bay Area we recorded it.

This auditory guessing game is part of Audiograph, a crowd-sourced collaborative radio project mapping the sonic signature of each of the Bay Area’s nine counties. By using the sounds of voices, nature, industry, and music, Audiograph tells the story of where you live, and the people who live there with you. Every Thursday, we reveal the origins of that week's sound on Crosscurrents, and here in weekly blog posts.

Listen above for the full answer...

CLAIRE MADISON: This is my modern game, Bantam Joe. He's three years old and he's my showmanship bird. He is a really long-legged chicken, and he's also a Bantam, which means he's about one-fourth the size of a regular chicken. So, he's kind of like a chicken on stilts, and he's black and white.

Congratulations to Libby Pope, you're this week's winner. For everyone else, we'll have a new sound for you to guess and another chance to win next week
