Product Description

Learn the facts of bird sound while listening to over 200
beautiful exclusive stereo recordings from all over the world. Combining
anecdote, scientific theory and practical field experience, The Sound
Approach to Birding is a step-by-step guide through tone, pitch, rhythm,
reading sonagrams, acoustics, and using sounds to age and sex birds. It
explains how bird sounds are often the first indication of previously
unrecognised taxonomic splits, and explains how to identify them.

With The Sound Approach, you can maximise the use of sound in enhancing
your field skills, and improve your standards of identification, whatever
the level of your experience.
