Subject: [Nature Recordists] new member on a budget
From: Valerie Hayes <>
Hello-

I am a graduate student in biology at the University of West Georgia.  My t=
hesis project is on the ecology of box turtles.  I did my undergrad at Corn=
ell (including an ornithology class which met at the Lab of O).  I  also do=
 volunteer frog monitoring for the NAAMP.    Partly because of this, I have=
 become more interested in natural sounds and would like to try my hand at =
recording some.       However, I have no experience-- my artistic endeavors=
 have all been in the visual arts.  I've read a few books on the subject an=
d done a little internet research and come up with a couple of equipment op=
tions, but I don't think I know enough to really decide, so I was hoping fo=
r some advice.  I am also on a grad student's budget and would like to keep=
 costs down as much as possible.   I am considering Sennheiser HD202 or HD2=
80 headpones, An Edirol R09 or R09HR or a Zoom H2 recorder and I am unsure =
of microphones.

-Valerie
