That kind of device works pretty well for loud, relatively low-frequency
sounds. For example, I got a pretty good Whip-poor-will recording using
one. They don't do well with high-pitched or distant songs.

Subject: [mou-net] Recording birds inexpensively
I was wondering if anyone might recommend a cheap hand held recorder one
might use to record a bird song or call on one of those occasions when you
hear something new or different. I noticed Sony makes a small hand-held
voice recorder for around $50.00-65.00. Anyone tried something like that?
It wouldn't have to be really great quality.
