Bird watchers, bird enthusiasts, or anyone who enjoys watching birds and identifying them - even if it is from a window, will love this beautiful hardback book! Each page has a beautiful illustration of the bird and gives information about the bird’s ecology and behavior along with the lovely song it sings. And the built-in audio player allows you to actually listen to the bird’s song! Each page has a bird icon with a number, which is your cue to listen to the bird’s song track number. You can listen again by pressing “play” or use the “back” and “forward” buttons to select another song. The book is color coded and organized by specific bird types from North America. The different categories include Seabirds, Shorebirds, and Waterbirds; Forest Birds; Woodland Birds; and Open-Country Birds. The audio player includes 3 AAA batteries. This would make a wonderful gift or a great book to keep on the coffee table! ~ Gina
