Hi Jim:

The names of a number of these CDs are very similar. Here's a recap and
some additional ones. All of these have some shorebirds on them:


CD Media:

Roche, Jean C. and Jerome Chevereau. 2001. Bird Sounds of Europe &
North-west Africa. Wildsounds. London. [A 10-audo CD set].

Kettle, Ron and Richard Ranft. 2000. British Bird Sounds on CD. The British
Library. [A 2-audio CD set].

Roche, Jean C. 1996. Bird Songs and Calls of Britain and Europe.
Wildsounds. [A 4-audio CD set].

Jannes, Hannu. 2002. Calls of Eastern Vagrants. [One audio CD].

Birdguides. 2004 (?) The CD-ROM Guide to all the birds of Europe. [A 5-CD
set, but this is multi-media, not just an audio CD - also available on one
DVD-ROM, now as version 8]

Oxford University Press. 1998. Cramp's The complete birds of the Western
Palearctic on CD-ROM. [A 3 CD-ROM set. - Now available on one DVD]



Other Media: Then, when you venture away from CDs into videos and DVDs,
there are other candidates. Such as:

Bird Images. 2000. Shorebirds. [A 2-tape VHS video set].

Moores, Charlie and Nial. Birds of South Korea. [A 2-tape VHS video set].

Birdguides. The DVD_ROM Guide to British Birds. [One DVD]


I hope this helps. With this information, you should be able to find them
via Google <grin>. Let me know if you can't locate them.

Phil
