Listening to birds singing is said to improve mood and boost positive feelings and even health.

It doesn’t matter you’re five years old or eighty-five, listening to our feathered friends will open your eyes to a whole new world that lives all around us. This beautifully illustrated sound guide is the perfect way to introduce both children and adults, and especially families, to the wonders of bird song.

Each of the species covered – Little Spotted Kiwi, Brolga, King Penguin, Helmeted Hornbill, Grey-headed Woodpecker, Tui, Golden Whistler, Vinous-throated Parrotbill, Wood Thrush, Blue Rock-thrush, Common Nightingale and Song Sparrow – has a short description explaining some fascinating facts about that bird, plus a handful of beautiful colour photographs illustrating the subject. Then uniquely, and separating this title from other bird song books, the reader can then press the relevant button on the panel on the side of the book and a burst of the bird’s song will be played via the built-in speaker.
