Although that does raise an interesting question. Have bird songs changed drastically in the last 2000 years? If you can do the research and get good quality sounds for the suitable birds, we might try and put it in.

There might be some slight changes in dialects of various species, but overall, not much. The key thing, though, is that all the species of birds which CA put in for background noise are from the Western US...which kind of annoys me (I'm a closet birder as well as a nerdy gaming historian ).

Species shouldn't be too bad to figure out or research; recordings might be hard to find, but I may have some connections--I have a naturalist friend who actually is from Central Asia. I could possibly ask her to get some bird recordings this winter, if she goes back to visit family for the strat map...

Alternately, I could ask the Cornell Lab of Ornithology for them (they have an ENORMOUS collection of bird songs and calls). I have a connection there as well.

I'm game for this, if you think it would add to the mod (which I think it would, but of course I'm biased )
