What The Robin Knows : Jon Young

How Birds Reveal the Secrets of the Natural World Paperback | 272 pages Nature / Animals / Birds Award-winning naturalist and author Jon Young's What the Robin Knows reveals how understanding bird language and behavior can help us to see more wildlife. Jon Young’s ear- and eye-opening research begins with a simple premise: if you sit quietly, for as long as it takes nearby birds to stop worrying about you, you can begin to hear what they say to one another and understand what it means. Other animals attend to the birds’ warnings—their language and behaviors—so they can hide and protect themselves. If we learn to interpret these warnings, we can observe animals behaving as they do when they’re not feeling threatened by human presence. Understanding deep bird language is an ancient practice; this groundbreaking book combines the knowledge of Native cultures with current scientific research to guide readers to an enhanced understanding of the natural world.
