Searching for sounds on the web using Findsound

While searching for kookabura sounds this morning, I stumbled upon a
program called Findsound, which helps you search for sounds you want.
I haven't tried it, and it isn't free, but it sounds interesting and I
thought you might like to check it out:

P.S. On a trip to Australia several years ago, I stayed overnight in
Syndey.  Early the next morning, I was awakened by raucous laughter.
Instantly, I felt embarrassed, thinking that my neighbors had been
watching me through their windows (close by).  But, then I noticed
several kookaburas lined up on the telephone wire connected to the
house next door.  These were the guys making all the racket, and they
continued doing it each morning at the same time (5-6 AM). (They'd
show up, give their morning announcements (stock/sports reports), and
then take off. :))
