Howdy all,

Well, now that I have my gear set up and operating and I've had a chance to=

make some files while learning to make bird sound recordings.  And this
morning I find myself at the point of using the gear for the purpose that
was my intent.  Mainly recording bird sounds for identification purposes.

As of this morning I have recorded a bird sound I can not identify. You can=

hear it here:

This recording was made in my back yard in South Eastern New England,  the=

bird was hidden in the woods behind my place and not visible.

Now, what is the usual procedure one can use to identify this sound without=

a clue of what this bird looks like?

So, now I have a decent recording and I'm open to suggestions as to how to=

go about identifying what I've heard.  Regrettably I do not have any
sanctuaries near me as taking the recording to them would be the obvious
method.

What would you do?

Thanks,
Mitch & Shadow...
