“This song guide can be a companion to a field guide,preparation for a birding trip, or the key to identifying the early-riser heardevery morning outside the bedroom window. The format is simple butcomprehensive: famous birding couple Donald and Lillian Stokes name a bird, andits characteristic calls follow. An accompanying pamphlet describes what eachcall signifies and where the bird song was recorded. Praise should go to theintrepid recorders, who no doubt faced many challenges capturing their prey on tape.The result is a lovely collection, best savored in small portions.”
