    Does anyone know a good site for bird songs?

    Hey, I'm looking for a good website with bird calls and songs from eastern n.a. birds that will allow me to download the files onto my hard drive. I've found a few great sites but they wont let me download the files. My sister just gave me a handheld and I thought I would put some bird sounds on...

    strange american redstart

    The first time I saw the bird it was obvious. Right between the two patches of yellow on the flanks was a medium sized black spot. It reminded me of the chest spot on a tree sparrow, only bigger and higher. I wish I had gotten a better picture of it. It was definetly not a break in the plumage...

    A question on conservation.

    I hope I don't come off sounding like a brat but... I still believe that the number of species disappearing naturally is incredibly insignificant compared to the number that have been endangered as a result of Homo sapiens. We have had such profound effects on the biodiversity of the planet in...

    Sorry, wasn't meant to be insulting. Guess I should have sprinkled a few of these guys |=)| around.

    A question on conservation.

    That's one far fetched story! The situation has no application in the real world though. Extinction is so far above background levels that it would be impossible to actually find a species that was naturally going extinct. In the end, it all comes down to whether or not you think we have any...

    Alien?

    Looks very similar to pileated woodpecker holes here in Canada. Large woopecker holes are very distinct. I'm certain that the holes in your pictures were made by a woodpecker. Once they find a good spot they can go at it for a while and make some pretty impressive holes. Heres a pic i took of a...

    Need Help Identifying

    Yo. I would say either red shouldered or an juvenile accipiter of some sort. Tail looks a little long for a red tailled. It's hard to estimate the size from the pictures. I can't even be sure it is one of these birds. Sorry, hope someone else can get a pos. i.d. Edit: yeah, i would say...
