Following the success of ‘Birds as Individuals’, Len Howard spent the 1950s continuing to deepen her understanding of the birds in her garden. This book tells the story of one exceptional great tit that Len called Star. With patience, consistency and sensitivity, Len succeeds in teaching this little bird to count using taps. Star’s character and intelligence is revealed in this intimate bird biography. In opening her home to wild birds, Len gains their trust enough to make astonishing discoveries about their capabilities.
