Field Recording by Aaron Ximm,Angkor Wat, Cambodia

I've listened to this recording many times and I don't tire of it. Spacious and restful, yet packed: the unquestionably happy children's voices, the voices of the cicadas (or amphibians?) punning on their laughter and the softer crickets echoing the cicadas phrases on first passes; the low, rhythmic music and adult voices on the far left and far right on later passes. I made a diagram of the space I hear but I cannot figure out how the cicadas are perched so near the swimmers. Perhaps they are in reeds at edge of the water or in tree branches above the swimmers?
