Publisher's Synopsis

""Wood Notes Wild: Notations of Bird Music"" is a book written by Simeon Pease Cheney and originally published in 1892. The book is a collection of musical notations and descriptions of the songs and calls of various bird species found in North America. Cheney was a naturalist and musician who spent many years observing and studying birds in their natural habitats. In this book, he presents his findings in a detailed and scientific manner, using musical notation to accurately represent the sounds of each bird's song or call. The book includes descriptions of over 100 bird species, along with information about their habitats, behavior, and other characteristics. Cheney's writing is both informative and poetic, capturing the beauty and complexity of bird music in a way that is both scientific and artistic.
