BA Gooday, I recently watched a lady cleverly holding binoculars and a small digital voice recorder at the same time, with both hands, and describing details of a bird into the recorder while she watched it through the binoculars. This seemed rather clever as she then did not have to take her eyes off the bird while recording all the details. I on the other hand would have had to take my eyes off the bird to write anything down in a note pad. She then pointed the recorder at the bird and got a good enough record of the call to identify the bird later. The lady used a slim black 3 year old Sony digital recorder that cost less than $100. Has anyone had any recent experiences with these type of devices and can they offer any advice on models etc. Thanking you Greg Little =============================== To unsubscribe from this mailing list, send the message: unsubscribe (in the body of the message, with no Subject line) to: birding-aus-request@vicnet.net.au http://birding-aus.org ===============================
