Sea Shore Birds
Jean C Roché
On this CD the listener can become absorbed in 62 minutes of the fascinating world of sounds of seabird colonies recorded at a few remarkable coastal sites.
This CD can be used as a "sound identification guide" thanks to its numerical indexing; each index corresponds to the call of a single species, in the foreground of the recording; thus distinct from the general concert. Some species are indexed on more than one concert so that it is possible to discover a greater variety of calls made by a single species. 66 min.
