As previsouly said, the sound approach to birding is a brilliant book, with cds to you can actually hear what they are talking about. I have however recently purchased a book called Bird Songs & Calls by Dave Farrow. Its a really good book to get you introduced to many species in UK and Northern Europe and comes will 2 CDS (~200 recordings) playing calls and alternative calls. Its been brilliant for me. I uploaded it on my itunes so occasionally when im listening to music will get the random bird call pop up when im on shuffle, a good way of testing yourself.</blockquote>
