Understanding Birdsong -- and Its Fans
by Terry Gross
Audio for this story will be available at approx. 3:00 p.m. ET
Detail from the cover of Donald Kroodsma's The Singing Life of Birds.
Fresh Air from WHYY, March 29, 2005 · Donald Kroodsma is a renowned
specialist in the interpretation of bird songs. His new book, The Singing Life
of Birds: The Art and Science of Listening to Birdsong, describes how birds
communicate and why. But Kroodsma is also the subject of another book -- about
those who listen to birds.
Birdsong, by Don Stap, details the work and passions of people who analyze
the sounds of birds. Stap followed Kroodsma from the lab into the field to
write his account of the researcher at work.
