A unique book for both the confirmed bird-watcher as well as the casual observer that will add a challenging and rewarding dimension to the apprecaition of our avian neighbors. Dr. Burtt found that there are two basic methods of studying bird psychology and behavior: 1) observing birds in their natural condition and surroundings and 2) altering their familiar surroundings either indoors in the laboratory or outdoors in the field. The study takes up the aural and visual organs, the drives an dmotives, such as hunger, danger,and sex; migration both instinctive and learned; social behavior, communication, family adjustments, personality, intelligence, preening, frustrations, anti-social behavior, etc.
