Renowned bird biologist Les Beletsky provides a succinct description of each of the 250 birds profiled, with an emphasis on their distinctive songs.

  • Great book!

    This book is in perfect condition. Sound works as it should and shipping was as expected. This is a great book for anyone interested in birds. My in-laws have had this book for several years and our boys love it. We decided to get one for our house to enjoy!

  • So surprised!

    I didn't give the size of this book much thought when buying it but upon the QUICK delivery I was wondering ' what could this be?'.......it was my Bird Songs book! It's huge! I'd say 12" x 14" and so glad to have it! Amazing water color pictures of each type of bird AND I can enjoy their songs, even in winter when many have gone south! 250 BIRDS! This will be handed down to my granddaughter for sure and she will love it too!

  • Backyard birding

    I have owned this book before but the sound is not what I remember. Apparently the speaker is faulty as my first purchase of this book years ago, the bird calls were loud and crisp. I wish I could have the speakers repaired somewhere.

    Great book for anyone who wants to study birds in there sounds, unfortunately we purchased our book used, and the speaker, even with new batteries, is not loud at all

  • Great book for bird lovers and bird lovers to be.

    This is a great product for bird lovers and children to learn about birds. The only problem is the glue that holds the sound box on the book is not good as it had to be re-glued.

  • Great sounds but bad cover

    Really great sound but the book is not “like new”. The corners are torn and there are scratches all over the front cover. I usually wouldn’t care but this was a gift for my mom and I would have liked it to be in better shape.

  • Birds

    The book has pictures of the bird and pressing the sound helps identify the bird. Also if you play it outside you can call the birds.
