Does anyone out there in tweeter-land know of a source for song
recordings of these two thrashers? I have a tape of the old (circa 1976)
Peterson recordings for birds of the West; however, it includes only the
more common of the thrashers, such as curve-billed, California, etc.

I am planning a trip to southern California and southern Arizona at the
end of March, and would like to have recordings of LeConte's and Crissal
thrashers to help entice them into the open. I've missed both of these
species on several previous trips to these areas.

If anyone can help, you can answer me directly, or put it out on
tweeters, whichever you think is most appropriate.

Thanks,
