Our backyard birds provide an endless source of interest and entertainment, from noisy honeyeaters squabbling over wattle flowers to tiny pardalotes flitting high in the treetops.
This remarkable and very useful book and audio CD combination will help the reader to identify a wide selection of common species by sight and sound. A little knowledge of the songs and calls of our birds goes a long way to identifying the surprisingly extensive range of species which inhabits the average Australian backyard.
