Birds Songs Recorded
After Many Failures

1t took modern engineering and
science to capture the songs of birds
where the musical and initiative
arts had failed, says the Literary
Digest. Bird songs are among the
most elusive of melodies. Musicians
have often tried to write them
down, but most birds do not sing In
. the man-made scale. Their notes
are usually not whole or half tones.
but may be quarter tones or other
fractions.
The apparatus which has first
successfully recorded bird melodies
was devised under the direction of
Albert r. Brand, associate In orni-
thology, American Museum of Nat
ural History. This recording ma
chine Is essentially an adaptation OF
the equipment used In recording the
human voice In talking picture stu
dIos.
The longest shot ever taken with
the apparatus was during the re-
cordlng of the song of a common
oriole. The truck was $50 feet from
the microphone, and the micro
phone and mirror were at least an
other 100 yards from the bird. At
that distance II was hard to distin-
gush the bird through the mirror
sght.1yet the sound picture was
c6npfetely satisfactory.
