Customer Reviews

Description completely inaccurate! Not happy.

I bought this for my husband. I was very excited to find it and in “very good condition”. Except it’s not. It doesn’t have the sound board!!! How are you supposed to hear the bird songs (which is the point of the book) when the thing that plays the bird songs isn’t part of the book??? Extremely upset.

Listen and Learn

It has been frustrating trying to use audio tapes to learn to identiy bird calls. Now I finally have a source to picture in my mind the bird while listening to the calls. My retention has improved markedly and I'm grateful for this very fine book.

My parrot loves it too!

I bought this book especially as a way to interact with my pet parrot. She loves hearing bird calls coming from the various shows on TV and I thought this book would be perfect to entertain her with. The song panel is easy to operate, has volume control, and even has an option of playing in "All" mode, so that you only have to press the button once (it's right before song #1, or at the end of song #200), and it will automatically play all the bird calls, one after another, for ten minutes or so on it's own. My bird sits on the book and just listens to the different bird calls with amazement. I'm noticing the more I play it, the more she enjoys it. It's as good as I thought it'd be for entertaining her! The only thing I could say that I wish were better about the book is that if it had more parrot species calls. It only has about two or three out of the two hundred. It's also a great learning tool for us humans too, to hear these different bird calls and read about the birds who make them. I can't wait to get another one of the books in this series to hear even more bird calls and enjoy them with my parrot!

So fun!

This series of bird song books is awesome. It's easy to scroll through the songs, the sound quality is good, the information on each bird is interesting, and the range of birds is very cool. A treat.

Bird Songs Delivered On Time

I was pleased with the timely delivery of this fabulous book. Our family has enjoyed so much of bird noises already. These books (we have the Bird Songs of America) are always put together so well.
