I am honored and truly grateful to have helped #dc celebrate the 100th anniversary of our nation's greatest idea, the National Parks. Thanks to everyone who came out, Event Tech and @nationalmallnps for bringing me on, and @natgeo, @elephantvoices and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology for helping make this show possible. Now get out there and #findyourpark and #TuneIntoNature! #djecotone #wildlifedj #live cc: @jukeboxtheghost @thelastyear look forward to sharing the stage again soon! (at Constitution Gardens Pond)

Pew pew! Happy 100th birthday, @nationalparkservice! I plan on recording many more of your soundscapes over the coming decades. #shotgunmic #sennheiser #recording

Testing binoculars with the @audubonsociety. When you use something nearly every day, all the little details count! (at Brooklyn Botanic Garden)

I don't post news until the contract is signed, and now it is! I am officially a grantee of the National Geographic Expeditions Council. To say I'm honored and excited is a huge understatement, so stay tuned for more about the amazing project funded by this grant! Thank you, @natgeo!!! #djecotone #wildlifedj #natgeo #expedition #letsexplore

I'm going to miss this place, at least until next year! Thank you to all the @thewcs staff who helped me create this fun art residency at the @bronxzoo. #wildlifedj #djecotone (at Bronx Zoo)
