Peter,
Isn't there a recorder out there you can strap to a tree and come
back the next day?  Used mainly in research I think.

If you just want to try this, you can just leave your recorder
running without monitoring. It means you can't be sure that what
you're getting is ok, you'll likely end up with more unidentified
species in the recording, and there's a chance someone will nick
your recorder, but otherwise it's far more convenient than
running a cable.
