Birdscapes: A Pop-Up Book and Celebration of Bird Songs in Stereo Sound
Birdscapes, by Miyoko Chu, director of communications at Cornell's Lab of Ornithology, delivers an immersion birding experience never before seen -- or heard -- in any book.
Opening the book triggers 45 seconds of rare stereo bird songs and calls of recordings acquired on expeditions by the lab's Macaulay Library.
The book's seven elaborately engineered, full-color pop-ups depict dozens of bird species in North American habitats, such as grasslands, the Sonoran desert, an eastern deciduous forest, a pacific seabird colony, the arctic tundra and a cypress swamp.
