The Birds

$100

The Birds includes selections from some of my previous libraries: Forests and Mountains, California Grassland Wildlife, Forest Day, and Harbor and Ocean.

I’ve gone through all of these libraries and selected what I consider some of my favorite recordings and that only include birds. With this collection you get a wide variety of various birds in different environments, perspectives, times of the day, night. Birds together, more specific and separate, close, distant. The locations mostly include Southern California Foothills, Forests, and Mountains and Central California Grassland areas. There’s also some recordings from Washington and Oregon.

There’s a few different species of Owls, a number of Ravens, various Sparrows, Woodpeckers, Doves, Finches and all sorts of other fun birds singing away. Anyone looking for a bit more info should check out the library links up top to get a good idea.

I’ve provided the species listings by each library. The file names have been kept the same as they were in the original libraries so if anyone would like to compare metadata sheets to see what’s included it will be a bit easier.
