Bird Calls For Beginners

Author: Newman
Format: Paperback
Published: August 2008

How many of the more common birds of southern African can you identify from their calls?

Birdsong is everywhere, whether we live in the city or in the country. Without the musical backdrop of our feathered friends, our gardens, parks and fields would be relatively silent – and much the poorer for it. Often we hear their calls, but cannot see the birds making them.

The enclosed CD features 60 common bird calls.

The book features full-colour photographs of the birds, distribution maps and interesting text about their habits, feeding and nesting routines, and their calls.

Invaluable for birders of all ages, this CD and book will open up a new world of bird recognition and behaviour, and perhaps be the start of an abiding interest in these most tuneful of our fellow inhabitants.
