Product Description: 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.

Good entertainment for one or two days. Too big and bulky for the page content and illustration sizes. Some songs questionable. Not regional enough for me. Best donated to a nature center or library.
bird songs book review
I had seen this book before I bought it so I new what I was getting and I wasn't disappointed. I highly recommend it.
Great gift After owning one for a couple of years, I got another as a birthday gift for my brother in law...there were several new choices available, mostly less expensive, but I decided on this, because I KNOW it, and trust the content...one thing everyone should be aware...with many birds,the calls recorded are not the ONLY calls of the spieces,but usually the most prevailent...so don't be surprised if you hear something different...
Bird Song Book This is a very good book. I bought myself one and this one I sent to my brother in Idaho. I LOVE this book. If you are a bird lover, you need this book.
Bird Songs book review I received this book as a gift a few years ago, and since then, I have given 4 of them as gifts to my bird-loving friends! I also shared it with a friend who just turned 3 years old. She enjoyed learning the names of the birds and the sounds they make. I have learned to identify birds by their sounds, without even seeing them!
