Hi -

I'm looking for some bird/insect field recordings from New Zealand - in particular, things like Tuis, Bellbirds and cicadas. And, not to be picky , recorded at high quality sample rates with good mics.

So, any of our Kiwi friends want to help out? I can supply any UK specific field recordings by way of trade.

Thanks.

The first isn't from New Zealand, but it should do, unless you specifically need New Zealand cicadas.

Thanks Mal - I have those samples already, thanks anyway...but was looking for something more specific rather than general bush sounds. The cicada is good though!

Cheers
