And the Rijksmuseum! The Getty! Links on that page!

And get this:

Ornithologists and bird watchers rejoice. After a dozen years, The Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s Macaulay Library has fully digitized its nearly 150,000 audio recordings (a total running time of 7,513 hours), representing close to 9,000 different species, such as the very unsettling-sounding Barred Owl (above). While the collection also includes the sounds of whales, elephants, frogs, primates, and other animals, the primary emphasis here is on birds (it is a Lab of Ornithology, after all), and there is an incredible range of calls.

I think this calls for a challenge. Your photo must contain one of the free images combined with at least one of your own. Expert editing.

Where to look first?

What a trove.
This reminds me of way back when, in the Usenet days. I was poking around, with my little Hayes micromodem, and somehow slithered into the back rooms of the Louvre.
And didn't know how to get out! Finally I reached behind my Apple 2+ and flipped the switch to 'off' before someone came knocking on my door.
