Soothing, restorative, confidence raising.

A really lovely and clear recording of 52 different British garden bird species so you can accurately identify their calls. Giving great fun and satisfaction for both adults and children it's a good very calming and interesting treat. Bought from Audible for less than £3- which is a bargain. The accompanying PDF (accessed via the Chapters Tab on the audiobook playing on the Audible app) gives further interesting information on the recordings and explains how calls of a species vary seasonally. Highly recommended ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Does the job well.

This is helping me learn birdsong. The labelled index means I can easily go straight to the bird I want.

Beautiful, clear and concise.

My 6 year old likes to listen to this if he can't sleep at night, or he's lying awake hearing the noise on the streets. It's a welcome distraction, and he has no idea that he's learning something too! Although we do recognise some bird songs, this is a handy reference guide.
