YEAR OF BIRDSONG (HB)

Leading bird expert Dominic Couzens takes you on a journey to enjoy birds’ songs around the world, one for every week of the year. From the ancient song of the Rifleman wren in New Zealand to an American Robin singing from a skyscraper, the book covers myriad topics including bird nature and behaviour, literary works inspired by birdsong, the musicality of the notes, and what different songs communicate. Accompanied by illustrations from award-winning artist Madeleine Floyd and QR codes so you can listen to sound clips.
