IDENTIFY MIGRATORY BIRDS WITH THIS BOOK, CONTAINING DETAILED TEXT ON
FLIGHT AND CONTACT CALLS, ANNOTATED SONOGRAMS AND QR CODES TO THE
CALLS THEMSELVES.
Every spring and autumn, millions of birds fly over us to _en route_
to their summer or winter quarters, with these migratory flights
occurring both day and night. A profusion of sounds fills the air,
making it possible to put a name to these fleeting silhouettes -
because the best way to identify these migrants is by their calls.
Often neglected in traditional identification guides, these calls are
described in this book with precision. Annotated sonograms make it
possible to visualise, identify and better memorise the flight and
contact calls of British and European migratory species.
* Describes 450 species, with detailed text, photographs and
sonograms.
* Features essential criteria for effective identification of calls in
the field.
* Covers migratory behaviour and where and when to encounter each
species.
* Contains QR codes linking to more than 1,000 downloadable sounds to
listen to at home or on your smartphone.
