Book Reviews of The Art of Pishing: How to Attract Birds by Mimicking Their Calls (Book & Audio CD)
Book Review: Informative, intelligen and very humorous
Summary: 5 Stars
The Art of Pishing is an excellent source for learning how to attract birds by mimicking their alert/alarm calls. The humor in the book is a delightful surprise and kept me reading for the next one-liner. At the same time the author clearly explains how to "pish". If that's not enough the CD that comes with the book provides a complete series of lessons on how to make pishing noises. Excellent book!
