Hi all,
I am carrying out a project for my dissertation research, where I am looking at the effect human noise has on the bird song of Robins and Blackbirds. I am not a bird watcher nor have I ever attempted to record them before, but very interested in it. I have been able to record robins rather easily because I just play a robin song and they respond rapidly... but I'm having difficulty recording blackbirds..
Difficulty is an understatement, I've recorded none! I'm not sure if it's the time of year (as I know they can be quiet around this time) or I'm doing something wrong...
Any advice on how to capture a blackbird song? I can easily identify it, I just haven't heard any around Southampton since I've been carrying out this work.
Any advice would be great!!
Thank you
