Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. Bird Talk delves into new scientific developments to reveal the complexities of how birds make, learn, and use sound in a bewildering array of songs and calls. The beauty of birdsong is one of the joys of nature, and this book reveals how songs are learnt and performed, why the quality of a male's repertoire can affect his mating success, and how birds use song-matching and countersinging in territorial disputes. Bird Talk illustrates how birds communicate through visual signals too, from the dazzling feathers of a Peacock to the jumping displays a Jackson's Widowbird performs to show off his long tail. Plumage features such as the red bill shield of a Pukeko can indicate dominance, and how aggressive wing-waving is used to ward off impostors.Bird Talk will help you understand how birds communicate in a range of situations, whether in harmony or in conflict, providing essential new insight into avian intelligence.

Rilegato. Condition: new. Roma, 2021; ril., pp. 192, cm 12x24. (Scienze Naturali. Manuali). Partendo dagli ultimi sviluppi scientifici Il linguaggio degli uccelli rivela le complessità riguardanti la produzione, l'apprendimento e l'utilizzo dei suoni da parte degli uccelli in una sbalorditiva varietà di canti e richiami. La bellezza del canto degli uccelli è una delle meraviglie della natura, e questo libro mostra come i canti vengono imparati ed esibiti, perché la qualità del repertorio di un maschio può influenzare il suo successo riproduttivo. Il libro illustra anche come gli uccelli comunicano attraverso i segnali visivi, dalle piume abbaglianti di un pavone ai balzi che una Vedova di Jackson esegue per esibire le sue lunghe piume caudali. Alcuni aspetti possono indicare dominanza, come ad esempio lo scudo rosso sul becco del Pollo sultano australasiano, mentre i cenni aggressivi delle ali sono usati per respingere gli avversari. Questo libro ti aiuterà a comprendere come gli uccelli comunicano in diverse situazioni, se in armonia o in conflitto, fornendo un nuovo punto di vista sull'intelligenza aviaria. Libro.…
