Fold out blue print of musical notes and charted music. Each bar of music is titled underneath with a birds name. As notes are labeled Presto or Moderato we are told they are the speeds in which the sparrow or wood thrush sings. On the very top of the page it is written in bold “extremely important to those who do not read music.” Delicate notes and songs are forged onto a seeming authoritative medium.
