Hello,

Well, I usually work with whales and dolphins, but occasionally check
out the avian side of acoustics.

Some of you may remember the news a while back of the chorus of the
Plain-tailed wren. The story is at:

http://www.abc.net.au/science/news/stories/s1463185.htm

I recently upgraded some software, and took another look at this
amazing chorus. One of the resulting images has been uploaded to the
'Files' section as agua9970.

This can be read like a song sheet, starting from upper-left,
proceeding left-to-right, top-to-bottom, ending at the lower right
corner. The entire image represents about 10 seconds, a complete
refrain of this remarkable chorus. The sound file is in the news
article above.

Enjoy,

Mark
