Teach Yourself Bird Sounds

Eds. Dominic Couzens & John Wyatt

This habitat based series covers common songs and calls of the species concerned. A detailed spoken commentary stresses what aspects of each sound make it individually identifiable, e.g. for Blackbird "There are usually good pauses between phrases with little obvious repetition. One of its well known calls is this panicky alarm rattle." Direct comparisons are regularly made between similar sounding species, whether insect, bird or mammal. Only on cassette.
