Bird Songs

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. more

4/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jun-23-2009; Nice book; Beautiful illustrations. Good information on each bird. A great way to familiarize yourself with the various calls.

4/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jun-11-2009; Bird book with sound; This is a fun and informative book ~ and I received it quickly.

I enjoy it,...; read full review | report as inappropriate

3/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jan-20-2009; Initial Disappointment; The book was received in good time and outward condition. My attraction to this book was the recorded bird songs that it could play.

1/5: From: Amazon; Posted: Jan-13-2009; poor quality electronics; The book's Volume Up key did not work from the start. Changing the batteries did not help.
