Drawing
from the collection of the world-renowned Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab
of Ornithology, Bird Songs presents the most notable North American
birds—including the rediscovered Ivory-billed Woodpecker—in a stunning new
format. Renowned bird biologist Les Beletsky provides a succinct description of
each of the 250 birds profiled, with an emphasis on their distinctive songs.
Lavish full-color illustrations accompany each account, while a sleek, built-in
digital audio player holds 250 corresponding songs and calls. In his foreword,
North American bird expert and distinguished natural historian Jon L. Dunn
shares insights gained from a lifetime of passionate study. Complete with the
most up-to-date and scientifically accurate information, Bird Songs is the
first book to capture the enchantment of these beautiful birds in words,
pictures, and song. The Cornell Lab of Ornithology, located in Ithaca, New
York, is a nonprofit institution focused on birds and whose mission is to
interpret and conserve the earth's biological diversity through research. The
Macaulay Library at the Cornell Lab is the major source of sound recordings of
birds for research, education, conservation, the media, and commercial
products.
