May I endorse Jim's suggestion? Both the May/June option, and the longer
time. In Oz, June is just right for lyrebirds. I'm sure Vicki Powys would
be able to send a beautiful Superb Lyrebird recording, and I could try for
one from an Albert's Lyrebird. (The slight doubt in my case is the on-going
drought which seems likely to discourage Albert's breeding this year.)
But it does need at least a minute (and preferably longer) to give a minimum
song sample of an Albert's Lyrebird, and probably still more for a Superb.
I'd love to be able to buy a CD recording as Jim suggests - both for the
intrinsic interest of the birds and for the association with individuals
from Naturerecordists, whom I'm never likely to meet, but whose names and to
some extent personalities, have become familiar through postings.

Subject: RE: Thanks and Minidisc
Dear Tom,
Hi, My name is Jugal
I am an Ecologist from India presently working in Eritrea with the Seawater
Farms Eritrea. My specialization is birds. I want to buy a good bird-call
recording system. I read your mail with great interest. Kindly tell me how
much a good call recording system would cost and of what made (company).
How much your Sony MZ R 37 Sp and accessories cost ?.
Kindly write to me. If you are interested in Eritrea ?. It is a great
country for birding. I can tell you more on hearing from you.
Regards

Chris,
I just made the same move from cassette to MD. I'm using a Sony MZ R 37SP.
I
like it because the controls are on the side rather than on the top. This
is
great since I carry it in a field case which I fasten to a binocular
harness
and I'm able to look down at at the face and make neccessary adjustments
as I
record. I am using a PASS MD- Report interface so I can have pro
connections.
I haven't done much recording with this setup yet, but so far so good.
