Stokes Field Guide to Bird Songs: Eastern Region (Stokes Field Guide to Bird Songs)

About 300 species represented on 3 CDs. Good quality recordings. Ready to rip to an MP3 player for birding and bird photography outings. If you use iPod, the iTunes software makes it easy to chose a start time for each track, thus removing the 2 - 2.5 second baritone: "Great Blue Heron," etc. See my review of Kensington portable MP3 speakers - something similar with a bit more volume would be ideal.

Very handy and easy to use as a reference and with BirdJam for iPod, but not as good for a beginner just starting.

Great product. Only criticism is that the cd case doesn't open and close properly/easily.
Fast shipment. Would recommend.

A comprehensive collection

Over 350 bird species are represented in this set (3 CDs, 99 tracks per CD, some tracks having more than one species). I find it to be very complete; it even includes several species that only occur as accidentals in the east region.

The recordings usually include several vocalizations for each species (songs, warning calls, imitations of other birds, or chip notes). Most samples are about 35 seconds long.

The short introductory track, in which the Stokes demonstrate reading from a script, is laughably bad, but fortunately that is not the point.

I have enjoyed birding for years and am familiar with a wide range of calls, and I am finding this set very useful for reinforcement of the ones I know and for learning the ones that I only hear for several weeks a year, such as transient species of warblers. I recommend it.

This product hits the mark

Stokes Field Guide to Bird Songs can be downloaded on an i-pod and used in conjuction with "Bird Jam" software to allow easy field identification of birds. If you are a birder, and like to know what birds are around, this product will confirm your identifications. You will even be able to ID the little guys by ear. It is thorough, accurate and fun.
