Dear all

I have heard some wonderful recordings since joining this group a couple of=
 weeks ago including this one and I would like some advice.=20



Since I am a composer I am always looking for new material.  I have yet to =
get back to New Zealand where I was born and record the Bell Birds.  During=
 December in Fiordland (the bottom of the South Island) hundreds of mating =
pairs gather together.  Each pair sings to each other but in separate trees=
.  Standing in the middle of a pair is quite extraordinary and would need a=
 recording to do the description justice!  And at 4 AM just as the sun is c=
oming up all of them launch into chorus.



Back to my original point:   Is it possible for me to use some of the bird =
calls that many of you have recorded in my compositions?  Obviously I would=
 where ever possible contact the person who recorded the material first.  B=
ut I would like to know what is and isn't acceptable?=20



All the best David

Great recording as usual Dominique.

I recorded a Bullfinch in England last year, different dialect to yours.

pyrrhula pyrrhula) recordings


Hi,
What looks like a sub-species of Bullfinch has been spotted in several
regions of Belgium in the last 10 weeks. What attracted the attention is
their call, which is quite different from the call of our local Bullfinch.
I have been able to record some calls last Sunday and these, when compared
with other recordings, appear to confirm that the visitors are Northern
Bullfinchs Pyrrhula pyrrhula pyrrhula.
My recordings are at http://www.soundsnatural.be/index.php?r=3D174
We compared them with these http://ddkkk.1g.fi/pyrpyr/pyrpyr.htm recorded b=
y
Annika Forsten & Antero Lindholm in 2002, in the Komi Republic, northeast
European Russia.
Does anyone have similar calls recorded somewhere else in Northern Europe ?
Thanks,
DL
