A method and apparatus for creating digital representations of sounds from printed sonograms. The method and apparatus are especially useful for audibly reproducing bird songs from printed sonograms in guidebooks to aid in the identification of birds. The apparatus is preferably conveniently sized to fit in one hand, is portable, and is capable of being used outdoors. An optical image acquisition element is used to acquire a digitized image of the printed sonogram which is then analyzed to produce a digital representation of the sound that may be stored for selective playback as an audible output and used, for example, as an aid in the identification of birds. The optical image acquisition element may be mounted within the housing or may be mounted within a separate housing. The method is also adapted for use with a pocket computer or personal digital assistant (PDA). Data logging and data transfer features are also included.
