Songs of cisticolas etc

[iainhawk]

Hi does anyone know where i can get good sound recordings of the cisticolas and other birds of central Africa. i cant really find anything great on the internet - is there a CD set-without going for the huge CDROM databases?

i would appreciate any tips

Don't have this myself, but
