Re: Song Sleuth

Yah, yah, yah.

How many different calls can you get from a single species - Grey Shrike-thrush for example - from just one location?  While the slick advertising says that regional versions are available (with a whopping 60 species available!) I'm not sure I'm sold on it.

Now what I've always thought would be useful is a remote DNA detector!  Dial in your species code - 0603 for Regent Honeyeater, drive around and stop when the detector starts beeping.  Alternatively have it on scan and watch the species names scroll by as you drive past them.

How many times have you been looking for a particular species and wondered how many you've just driven past?

Now we're talking.
