Excerpt from Henry T. Armistead's review in Bird Watcher's Digest:
"Pete Dunne describes the best methods for pishing but also includes other sounds one can utter to attract birds, including imitations of barred, saw-whet, screech, and pygmy owls...The text is broken up with excellent black-and-white photographs, mostly by Kevin Karlson, of birds easy to pish up, as well as with a few of well-known birders who have pioneered the method. The CD is as entertaining and basic as the rest of the book. It reiterates much of the text, but it is good to hear what one is supposed to sound like, including the timing, volume and pitch."
