Bird Songs Of California 3 CD Set

Bird Songs Of California 3 CD Set


Bird Songs of California by Geoffrey A. Keller is an audio guide to more than 220 species of birds from California.

(From back cover) California is a birder's paradise. The diverse habitats of the Golden State include the deserts from the western extension of the Great Basin in the Northeast to the Mojave and Colorado Deserts in the Southeast, the mountains from the Sierra Nevada to the Coast Range, the 500-mile-long Central Valley at the heart of the state and the world-renowned California coast.

A sampling of birding experiences here might include participating in one of numerous Christmas Bird Counts that have tallied up 150 or more species, encountering massive spring migrations at desert oases in winter, searching for the state's 314 regularly nesting species,or being overwhelmed by the sheer number of birds at the Salton Sea, tens of thousands of Snow Geese in the Sacramento Valley, or a dozen wintering warbler species in Santa Barbara.

With Bird Songs of California, birders have an unprecedented tool at their disposal to explore California Birdlife. Geoff Keller and the Cornell Lab of Ornithology are to be applauded for their professional and comprehensive efforts resulting in this unique 3-CD set, the latest in their series of excellent regional birdsong CD's.

The Lab of Ornithology's emphasis on regional guides is a "sound" one. Many bird species have one or more distinctly regional dialects. Only a guide with regional emphasis can capture some or all of these, such as the striking recordings of the Sage Sparrow and Savannah Sparrow complex featured here.

The number of newly published vocalizations selected for this CD set is truly impressive, reflecting the great efforts in the sound recording fieldwork to capture as many different vocalizations as possible for this guide. Listening to the tracks of species such as Greater Roadrunner, Willow Flycatcher, and Lawrence's Goldfinch reveals how successful those efforts were.

These CD's are clearly leading edge. As would confidently be expected, Bird Songs of California Sets a new standard of excellence that will lead the way to even better regional birdsong CD sets in the Future, ultimately to the benefit of us all.

Call identification recordings are now very convenient to use with Apple I-pods and other MP3 player because of the MP3 players ease of searching for individual tracks and light weight. However you first have to load the CD's onto your computer.
