Songbirds!

"Great CD. We have 2 finches and after listening to this CD , our finches have developed quite a few new "songs". They are as happy listening to this CD as we are!"
Best bird CD I've found

"As far as the birds go, this is perfect. I wanted to hear birds, but I didn't want to feel like I was in an overcrowded aviary, which is how a lot of the bird CDs sound to me. This has birds and quiet spots, which I find more relaxing. The sound quality is superb. The description says it's 5.1, but it's really 4.0. There is nothing in the center channel and none of the birds sing low enough to even come close to providing anything for a subwoofer to reproduce. Those aren't complaints, though, just observations. The surround mix is great. There are 14 tracks, but you can't tell when the tracks change, so it just sounds like one long recording when you listen to it.



My only criticism is that somewhere around track 5 the sound of water in a brook shows up and sticks around for several tracks, after which it fades away. I'd much prefer this without the water because the sound of water doesn't relax me. I can't explain why, but when I hear water in these kinds of CDs, I find myself concentrating on the sound of the water, and a major reason I listen to something like this is to not concentrate on anything. Anyway, it's not obnoxious water, as in it doesn't sound like someone splashing in a bathtub or anything like that, so if you like the sound of a gentle brook mixed in with your bird sounds you should enjoy it."
