For some personal reasons I want to teach birds and their voices to my doughter. There are up to 100 common species.
I have *.ppt files with bird pictures and voices. And here my problem
starts. To teach songs of particular birds, one second is not enough. Usually,
sound files last for 10 - 20 seconds. Some birds have several songs.
Dryocopus martius has 5 different songs and all are important to distinguish
this species. In my slideshow, first (the most common) song is started automatically, others I can open by clicking.
I can show such a bird no more than twice; than my child says "bye bye".
Do I want too much at the same time? What would you advice to me?
For most of birds, voice is more important than look. Many of them we newer see but their voices are everywere.
I myself do not know these species very well. I hope that my child will help me to learn them! I enjoy watching my slideshows and listening all the songs of every bird
