I tend to agree with Marion. Small migratory birds have enough to do
without having to expend energy and time on potential mates or territorial
threats that arn't there. Predator calls can also be disruptive. When
playing or making bird calls interrupts important activities, stresses the
birds, or causes them to misallocate critical energy reserves, it could
come under the catagory of "harassing wildlife" which is against the law
some places.
Seems like playing or making bird calls should have a legitimate place in
birding though. Has anyone seen any guidelines on this? I'll check with
the folks at Cornell to see if they have come to grips with this issue. No
artificial bird calls during breeding season seems like a good start.
