This book was first published in German seventy years ago. Konrad Lorenz was an Austrian scientist, an expert in animal behaviour. One chapter in the book is "The Language of Animals". He studied geese and jackdaws among other birds. Jackdaws are clever and inquisitive birds. They like chimneys and litter bins!
