COMMENT =====> Having been an amateur "birdo" for decades I m only now starting to get interested in recording and analysis of bird sounds. You website has truly inspired me. You ve laid it all out so clearly, the information is really interesting and useful and the sounds and spectrograms are superb. I m particularly encouraged by the way you have taken a specific area to work in. I live on an island off the coast of South Australia. A third of the island is covered with pristine vegetation and abundant wildlife. There are rich opportunities for a focus project like yours. Thank you for your contribution to this endlessly fascinating area of study.

COMMENT =====> This website has been of great use to me. I m currently studying the song of the goldfinch for my final project for my Illustration degree. I would be extremely grateful if you could forward me any other information regarding the song of goldfinches. It would be extremely useful and may even get me extra marks for my degree! If you do have time, I really would appreciate a response. Best wishes, Lucy Willder

COMMENT =====> Good work. Very interesting. I m another biologist that are working in the industry and that in the night dreams of living in the field (but the family directs our lives). I am 53 years old and I have taken again my old interest to the ornithology recently. Certainly, the wonderful "Toscana" is a region that I have foreseen to visit in the future. I am charmed with the small birds difficult to observe and to know their songs is the only way of right identification in some situations. You are helping to me a lot of. Thanks and best regards. Javier.

COMMENT =====> I have been studying the sparrows of the genus Passer for over 60 years and recently in my section on Passeridae in the Handbook of the Birds of the World, Vol. 14. 2008 I separated this taxon as a species, Passer italiae. I do not have calls of italiae and would be most grateful if you could send me a downloadable copy of your three calls so that I can compare them with the two species that it has previously beem regarded as a subspeciss: domesticus and hispaniolensis

COMMENT =====> Excellent work and great display of sounds, the clear sound is the most interesting in these recordings, congratulations! I have a special interest in the fringilla coelebs songs because there are many different songs, the dialect song depend of the residence area. Have you studied something about fringilla coelebs song? Best regards

COMMENT =====> To Brancolas. Thanks for your incouraging words. About fringilla coelebs: no, till now I didn t do any research work about song dialects of this species. But I am certainly interested to this kind of research topics. A good sample of chaffinch songs from Tuscany is already in my sound library. If you want to contact me and discuss about this subject, please send a mail to the address that you find in this website. Best regards.
