As Scott points out, recorded bird calls are used to try and discourage pes=
t
bird species.



In New Zealand, prerecorded sounds of seabird nests are being used to try
and get seabirds to come back to nesting areas from which they had been
previously extirpated by predators.  (The predators have been removed).  I
know they have been successful with a couple of species so far.   So in thi=
s
case, the playing of the recordings is being used to change their behavior
in a positive way for conservation.
