Ornithology B/C

Yeah, I know about that. Should we paste a call even for birds we aren't responsible for knowing?

IMHO i prefer allaboutbirds.org for sounds.

I don't know. I'm not great with templates, so I'm not sure how to make the "[link]" thing (or whatever it is) invisible when you don't put a link in. [hint hint, wikimods ].

If that is figured out, we probably will only need to put the vocalizations we need to know.

Quizbowl, the sounds at allaboutbirds are taken from the macaulay library, since they're both run by Cornell.

EDIT: 300 POSTS!

For those of us working on the wiki pages, remember that there is a infobox field for the bird's voice. Just paste in a url and it'll convert it to a link. See [wiki]Template:Bird[/wiki] for more details. I'd recommend using a call from the Macaulay Library.

i just looked, that link is empty

What? No it isn't.

You have to search for the birds, sciencegeek100.

Got it updated for you guys.
Similar to the original just past a link as voice and it will be linked. But if you do not need a call please leave it blank and a filler text will be displayed

Thanks, it almost got annoying.

Quick update on what I'm planning for the application I mentioned several pages back:
As I can only develop on a mac, I have no way to do any creation until I get access to a mac, because of not being scheduled in my computer class I only have sporratic usage of macs.
So, it will probably mean I cant do much of anything until our iphone development club starts in october.
