Here's an exceedingly random question!

I think this is a great idea personally.

As a random observation, around here at least traffic noise has screwed up the singing patterns of quite a few birds. (They seem to be getting the mating and territory stuff done anyway, mind you.) Although that's obviously a pretty darn recent phenomenom, it just goes to show they *do* change their singing.

Some, anyway. I'm having a hard time imagining the rather... uncompromising and spartan aural signals used by the various members of the Corvidae family and gulls were very suspectible to interference.

Sounds great, but the day I see 'EB Preview: Birdsong Voicemod' on this forum, I'm going to collapse in a fit of helpless giggles. XD

what about birds, like Pinguinus impennis, that are now extinct???? We could always try to mimic them or something!!! I don't know how reliable sources are about species that got hunted into extinction the last 2280 years

And we would have to keep track of the wild/aerial life the romani and the other empires imported to europe once their spheres of influences extended to asia and africa. So we would need post-marian birdsong reforms of some sort...
