Book Reviews of Bird Songs: 250 North American Birds in Song
Book Review: Bird book with sound
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a fun and informative book ~ and I received it quickly. Because there was sound, the book requires batteries and I did have to replace them first thing, but otherwise it is great. I know my mom will really like it. I enjoy it, too!
Summary of Bird Songs: 250 North American Birds in Song
Drawing from the collection of the world-renowned Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, Bird Songs presents the most notable North American birds-including the rediscovered Ivory-billed Woodpecker-in a stunning new format. Renowned bird biologist Les Beletsky provides a succinct description of each of the 250 birds profiled, with an emphasis on their distinctive songs. Lavish full-color illustrations accompany each account, while a sleek, built-in digital audio player holds 250 corresponding songs and calls. In his foreword, North American bird expert and distinguished natural historian Jon L. Dunn shares insights gained from a lifetime of passionate study. Complete with the most up-to-date and scientifically accurate information, Bird Songs is the first book to capture the enchantment of these beautiful birds in words, pictures, and song. The Cornell Lab of Ornithology, located in Ithaca, New York, is a nonprofit institution focused on birds and whose mission is to interpret and conserve the earth's biological diversity through research. The Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab is the major source of sound recordings of birds for research, education, conservation, the media, and commercial products.Children's Books
