Synopsis Bird Brain by : Chuck Mullin
When Chuck Mullin began to suffer from anxiety and depression aged seventeen, she turned to drawing comics as a way to make sense of her experience. She soon found that pigeons were the perfect subjects through which to explore the complexities of living with mental illness, and several years later, her funny, quirky birds have won legions of fans online. From Bad Times to Positivity, the comics in Bird Brain use humour to provide a glimpse of what’s going on in Chuck’s head: dissociative episodes; cycles of anxiety; her struggle to accept she’s not alone; and the power of optimism on the days it’s possible.

Synopsis Bird Brain by : Joanne Levy
Key Selling Points Arden is a science-loving seventh grader who wishes for a pet...until her Uncle Eli gives her Ludwig, his African Grey parrot, to look after while he's away. The book is filled with a lot of fun parrot antics and is chock-full of facts about keeping birds as pets. Joanne Levy has a pet parrot and pulled many elements from her own feathered friend. The main character, Arden, must face a bully who uses insults and threats, and the book makes clear that bullying doesn't have to be physical to be serious and damaging. The author has written extensively for the middle-grade reader, and her book Sorry For Your Loss was a finalist for the Governor General's Literary Award, won the Canadian Jewish Literary Award and is a Sydney Taylor Book Award Notable Book.

Synopsis Bird Brain: an Exploration of Avian Intelligence by : Nathan Emery
An absorbing study of how birds think, revealing how science is exploding the myth of our feathered friends being 'bird brained', and how recent discoveries may call for us to re-evaluate how we identify and classify intelligence in other animals. Bird Brain will start by looking at the structures and functions of the avian brain, and move on to examine different types of intelligence by profiling the extraordinary behaviours of a broad range of the species, studying the masterminds of the avian world, and examining what types of behaviour can be interpreted as 'intelligence' as we would recognize it. Bird Brain will not only look at the well-studied species such as New Caledonian crows and parrots, but also cast a broader eye over the behaviour of a wide range of species from around the world.

Synopsis Birds by : Irving J. Goodman
Birds: Brain and Behavior is a collection of papers that discusses brain-behaviors problems concentrating on the bird's complex and well-integrated central nervous system. This collection reviews the theoretical and methodological problems concerning comparative studies of bird behavior in a brain-behavior relationship. The book explains the structural organization of the avian brain including the spinal cord and the general ascending/descending patterns of sensory projections. One paper analyzes the hearing and vocalization in songbirds that are composed of the auditory mechanisms, as well as the vocalization and audition systems. A study by Falls (1963) notes that songbirds use more than one type of auditory cue for species recognition. Another paper present brain stimulation parameters that affect bird vocalization. Other papers examine the neural basis of avian discrimination and reversal learning, memory disruptions by brain perturbation, and the behavioral and physiological correlations between the sleep and awake states. This book will prove useful for avian biologists, zoologists, and readers who have a general interest in birds.
