Be careful when you buy something 'cheap' to try your hand at
recording. You may loose interest because the results aren't what you
expected. And this may be the result of buying 'cheap' gear.
It would be a shame for you to get poor results when first learning
because of equipment rather than your lack of skill or knowledge. It
is very easy to get disheartened after spending time recording, then
getting home and finding the results are not as good as you'd hope,
and then blaming it on your skill level, when in actual fact it's the
equipment.
It can be a vicious circle I know, but getting hooked because of what
you can do, is better than loosing interest because of what you can't.
Spend some time going back through all the old posts on this group and
the 'Nature Recording' group. If you can, also spend some time with
someone in your area that has the same gear that you're thinking about
getting.
All of this is of course just my opinion for what it's worth.
