A beautiful addition to your yard to attract hummingbirds! If you've never taken the time to watch hummingbirds you have missed out!!! Fascinating little creatures that weigh about the same as 3 pennies.... well worth the time and investment to watch.

Bird Songs

First to recommend

Description

It's the grown-up version of the talking kids' books!!!! Flip through the beautiful illustrations to find the bird you are interested in, then dial in the corresponding number to instantly hear the bird call. It's easy and fascinating. I like being able to see the bird and hear it at the same time. Very convenient for back-yard birders and enthusiasts alike.

Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
Here are splendid color illustrations of 250 species of birds, some showing only the male and others showing both the male and female. Drawing from the Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab of Ornithology, the book is divided into four parts: seabirds, shorebirds, and water birds; forest birds; woodland birds; and open-country birds. With each illustration is a description of the bird's range in the U.S and Canada and its ecology and behavior. The profiles emphasize the birds' vocalizations--both songs and calls--which can be heard on an audio component that comes with the book. By using this digital audio technology, readers will be able to relate the songs and calls to the birds' appearances. Beletsky, a notable bird biologist, has written a fascinating book that will aid bird-watchers. George Cohen

Review
Bird Songs is a significant new learning device for birdwatchers. By bringing digital audio technology to the printed book, you can relate the songs and calls of those birds you see from the comfort of your armchair. This unique and informative tool, combining text, illustrations, and sounds, should be on every coffee table. - Dr Paul Green, Director of Citizen Science, National Audubon Society

if you are a backyard birder, the squirrels can easily become your sworn enemy.... this baffle will make it much more difficult for them to steal from your feeders.

small enough to slip into your pocket or purse, this little magnifier works at distances of 3 feet to infinity according to the info on the website. I like it because it's less bulky than binoculars.
