My Magellan 315 GPS does the same for both sun and moon rise/set, based on
lat/long. It then calculates the best time for huntin and shootin.

Part of the excellent AUSLIG website includes a facility for calculating the
exact sunrise and sunset times for any spot in Australia (it may even
calculate beyond this country, I didn't try it). You can enter latitude /
longitude coordinates and the system will return the sunrise/sunset times
for any given day. I assume that these do not take altitude and landform
(shadow effect of mountains etc) into account, but it's a very handy little
tool - and free of course. Marvellous for those of us who like to be up to
see the birds at the very crack of dawn. Yeah, right.
Here's the URL for those interested:
