About this book

Celebrating birds and their songs, lovely drawings of the birds and their specific eggs are captured here for wildlife enthusiasts. The illustrations include details of the songs and sounds made by each of the birds, from sparrows and bearded tits to the lyrical nightingale—the latter of whom has up to 250 different phrases in his song, with each performance made up of a unique composition.
