The Genius of Birds
For a long time, many people have had the idea that birds were probably one of the least intelligent of all animal species. This belief has overshadowed the bird kingdom, a belief that has had very little evidence to support it.
Over the past few years, however, revolutionary groundbreaking research has been done to try to either prove or disprove this widely held belief. Laboratory experiments designed to test the problem-solving abilities of common birds have brought new light to this age-old and erroneous belief.
This book, “The Genius of Birds” written by Jennifer Ackerman, an award-winning science writer, takes the reader on a tour around the world to show exactly what birds are truly capable of doing.
