About this title

Synopsis

Read how tens of thousands of birds secretly migrated through Poole Harbour, and get tips for seeing them, or finding similar migrant corridors near your home. Learn the flight calls of these migrant songbirds from original stereo recordings, illustrated and explained using annotated sonograms. Explore the idea of the Dartford Warbler being Britain's first endemic species, along with the differences between Atlantic and Continental Great Cormorants, and the role of sound in Common Cuckoo conservation. Listen to the sounds of waders as they come and go with the tide, while enjoying the author's stories of bird racing, year listing and being stopped by the police for possession of a super ray gun.
