    No Wrens this Year?

    On my rather regular (slow) daily jogging tour I used to hear and see lots of wrens this time of the year. This year, however, none, or, occasionally one. I would be interested to know, if this is just a local problem or if other bird friends and watchers have had the same experience.

    Problems with Bird Songs on an Android

    Hi Recording Experts, I am the (new) owner of a new Android (Wiko Upulse Lite) and have successfully transferred the MP3 Bird Songs of Europe, North … (Andreas Schulze) to the Upulse. But I can’t find the songs. The file ‘Music’ is empty and ‘San Disk’ shows only a pattern of cryptic tiles. It...

    Fatal Aggression

    A few days ago a friend of mine watched two nuthatches. One was lying on the grass in front of his house. It seemed to be hurt, presumably after having bumped against a window pane. But it was still moving. Another nuthatch appeared and started pecking hard at his colleague and plucking its...

    Efficient MP3-Player

    Hello everyone, Can anyone recommend an efficient MP3-player with built-in speakers which produce a reasonably loud sound, so that I could use it in the field for playback without external speakers? The one I use - GoGear Ariaz 16 GB - only produces a "loud whisper". Thanks in advance for any...

    Suitable MP3 Player

    Hi everybody, I want to transfer the songs of "Birds of Tropical Asia 3" to a player. It should have sufficient capacity, the display should not be microscopic, and scrolling and finding individual songs should be easy. The one I use (Philips) drives me mad. It chases through the alphabet and...

    Money and Microphones

    Hi Recording Experts, fmhill recommends to combine 2 Sennheiser ME64/K6 for stereo recordings. According to my information (www.thomann.de) each unit costs about $ 530 - a total of $ 1060. The Sennheiser super mike MKH 418 S (stereo) costs some $ 1880. I wouldn't mind spending "a bit" more if...

    Recording and Playing

    Hi everybody, I'm a bird sound enthusiast and before starting on a bird tour I invariably try to become familiar with the bird songs of the country in question. For this purpose I study the sounds (listening repeatedly, using the shuffle program on my minidisc, taking notes - making my own...

    Suitable stereo microphone

    As a birdsong/music enthusiast I'm looking for a good microphone which can be used in the field without additional gear. It should be stereo because I want to record, for example, a birds' dawn chorus, including frogs etc. (and enjoy the concert later). On the other hand it should be sufficient...

    Hello

    Hi everybody, I've been a member of this forum for almost 24 hours now - about time to introduce myself! I live in a small old German town deep in the provinces. Turning 74 (not 47!)soon. Retired (teacher). Wouldn't call myself a bird(ing) expert, since I (alas!) began to take an interest in...
