Hi Geoff, The main CD i use is "The British Library, British Bird Sounds on cd" 2cd covering 175 species,all introduced and really very good. It's available from www.wildsounds.com for about £15.
I'd gladly send you copied files but the only way i know how to send audio files is through MSN messanger. Are you signed up for this?
Don't think i can send audio files via e mail attachments.
Or if you want to pm me your adress, i will copy them for you and post em. Only problem with this is, i don't have a scanner so i wouldn't be able to provide a track listing but when you load them into media player it would find the track listing for you.
Dean.

Thats a great idea Dean, I should try that one. I know what you mean about relearning some of the songs every spring, easy to forget some of the tricky ones over a long, wet winter!

Remembered to take my MP3 player out with me today, not to listen to music while i bird I've loaded my bird song cds on it and it's great to use in the field. Every spring when the songsters start up it seems like starting from scratch again. Some are really obvious but it's so long since i last heard them it takes a while to get up to speed especially when you can't get a decent sighting. Trying to remember the song when you get back to the car or home is very tricky, try writing a bird song in your note book So i pop my earphones in and listen "live" or just one ear peice and compare the recording to the real thing
