Are there any collections of calls that are more comprehensive?
I guess there's a problem with regional variations too for some species. For
example, the White-plumed Honeyeater calls on the BOCA CDs are barely
recognisable compared my local ones (Melbourne). I haven't checked where it
was recorded.
