5.0 out of 5 stars Best Loon CD I own!, November 21, 2006

This review is from: Sounds of the Earth: Loons (Audio CD)

I love loons and am always on the hunt for more CDs featuring this unique bird. If you love loons as much as I do, you will also truly enjoy this CD.

Unlike most other Loon CDs I own, this one is jam packed with loon calls from beginning to end. You will also hear water lapping against the shore, plus other assorted birds in the background.

This CD is well made and I recommend it highly. It features Nature Sounds only - no human voices, no cars, dogs barking or planes and has no music at all. It's a "must have" for loon lovers.

3.0 out of 5 stars Unnatural due to editing errors!, March 5, 2010

This review is from: Sounds of the Earth: Loons (Audio CD)

I grew up in Maine and love the sound of loons in the quiet of night. That's the hitch with this CD. While loons mostly call at night, songbirds are quiet then. On this CD the songbirds twitter away along with the loons. WRONG!
It seems like someone decided to fill in the quiet periods with daytime birdsong.The haunting power of loon calls is at least partly due to the silence they arise from. Here there is no silence. The effect is unnatural.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great sleep aid, February 9, 2008

This review is from: Sounds of the Earth: Loons (Audio CD)

I bought this cd for a friend who uses it for helping her go to sleep. She claims that it puts her out in no time, plus she loves the sounds of the loons and the occasional sounds of oars paddling through water.
