Hi again Paul,

In that case PCM-D50 should be a great recorder for anywhere less than
a mile from Padre Island:) 

I'm heading to Cape Disappointment today to record Pacific Chorus frog
choruses.  The Pacific Ocean surf will surely be dominant in the
background, but with the swell finally shrinking to around five feet
and the wind calming to a breeze, I might get lucky with a quiet dawn.
Hopefully I get something good enough to share here.
