Movie Reviews of Birds, Birds, Birds! An Indoor Birdwatching Field Trip DVD Video Bird and Bird Song Guide
Movie Review: Exceptionally well done!
Summary: 5 Stars
I love this DVD! The pictures are pristine and show both sexes, the video footage sprinkled thoughout is excellent, and the sound recordings are first rate as well. The mnemonic approach is original and "fixes" the sounds more easily in your memory. I find the female narrator's voice very pleasant and easy to understand. A treat for anyone who wants to learn just which bird it is whose song and calls fill the air, especially in the spring. Oh, and another wonderful plus: Great entertainment for my two lovebirds! It cracked me up when my male belted out the song of the Indigo bunting in near-perfect imitation. A companion CD is also available so you can listen to bird songs anywhere (or entertain your birds).
Please note: this DVD has but one aim: to familiarize the viewer/listener with birds and their songs and calls. If you want to learn more about these birds, I recommend Stokes' Field Guide to Birds, simply because it packs the most information on the same page of any guide that I own. For identification purposes and range, Sibley's Guide to Birds, in my opinion, is unsurpassed. And once your interest in birds leads you to ask more questions, by all means, treat yourself to Sir David Attenborough's marvelous The Life of Birds. I have both, the DVD set and the book, and I can only urge you to get the companion book as well since it is so wonderfully written. I found that I learned even more by reading the book after I had first watched the series on PBS. Sibley's Guide to Bird Behavior is also highly recommended.
There is a wealth of information out there on these feathered wonders, but for sheer beauty and clarity of sound, this DVD is worth every penny!
