I use Thayer's Birds of North America. It has a nice selection of pictures,
songs for each bird, and allows you to quiz yourself based on families,
states, predefined lists, or any criteria you select. It also allows to you
to set up screen savers, with sound for birds that you specify. The last
two features have greatly improved my identification ability. I've had BNA
for a year and a half, and can't imagine being without it!

Hi
I want to purchase bird song CDs to help with ID's. What's out there
and what do you recommend? I already have the Eastern Peterson tapes
but I want CDs I can carry with me for "on the spot" ID. What is the
most complete set available? I am interested in getting a birding
CD-ROM too: again, any recommendations would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
