Resource Description
BIRDSONG, A Natural History. Stap. Why do some sparrows have only one song while marsh wrens have over a hundred? Why do birds develop regional dialects and why do some sing at different times of the day and night? In lucid, accessible prose, this book disproves many common beliefs about birdsong and introduces facts that seem to go beyond fiction at times! It is now known, for example, that birds pass songs from generation to generation, much like humans pass on language. Young birds even babble and coo while formulating their “language.” A fascinating window into the mystery and delight found in unraveling the science and history of how and why birds sing. #BIRD-13468. Hardcover.
