blackbirds and individual variations in singing

Hello group,

lately I'm listening to male blackbirds from different places, and
can't but notice there are important differences among them. Uploaded
a couple files to illustrate this, although I guess this is most
likely a long-known fact:

ackbird.pinewood.mp3

ackbird.city.mp3
(my first files to the group, unsure if I did it/linked right,
apologies if I didn't)

Anyway, I was wondering... do any of you know if there is software to
quantify and callibrate differences by analyzing songs? I certainly
can distinguish some differences by ear, identify recurrent 'words'
and the like, but it would be nice to achieve this in a quantitative
way... Any hint?

Cheers

Dob
