The Ornithology thread currently has 902 posts in it. And yet it says nothing.
When it comes to the future, there are three kinds of people: those who let it happen, those who make it happen, and those who wonder what happened.

To try and bring some discussion back: anyone have an itouch/iphone and downloaded a bird app onto there? I got the Audubon one for around $20, and it was amazing, mainly because we got to study bird calls on the bus ride to states. :D I also prefer its real photographs as opposed to hand-drawn illustrations, like Sibley has.

And during an activity at bio camp, I snuck up behind a Canadian Goose and pet it. :)
trees, water, robots, and widi. (:

A cone of depression occurs when you drop your scoop of ice cream on the ground on a hot summer day.

I got the Peterson one for $8. It was pretty good, but doesn't have all of the calls.

It's expensive, but worth it on the go. Of course, you could study at home, but if you need to cram, you can count on them.
