Linen Hall Library

This singing bird was drawn by a student of Forge Integrated College in Linen Hall Library in Belfast. We reap many benefits from sharing our planet with birds, they're a keystone species, meaning they help to maintain the balance of the ecosystem.

Did you know? Songbirds of the same species may have different dialects depending on their geographical area. Their songs will be slightly different depending on where they live, much the same as people who speak the same language have accents depending on where they were raised.
