| In this segment we'll take a listen to a new pop-up bird book called "Birdscapes" that chirps, hoots and warbles as you turn the pages. We'll talk with the book's author, Miyoko Chu, to hear the stories on how those fantastic bird calls were gathered, from lakes in the arctic tundra to southern sawgrass swamps. |
