Are you looking for a truly classic clock to hang on your wall? But at the same time, you’d like something special? Then just listen to this: True to its name, which is the German word for “songbirds,” every hour the KOOKOO Singvögel sounds off with the voice of one of twelve European songbirds – from the blackbird to the woodlark. Recorded in the field by Jean-Claude Roché (France), the carefree singing of these birds will lift your heart, bringing an authentic piece of nature into your home. When darkness falls, a built-in light sensor automatically tells the entire flock that it’s time to pipe down for the night. 

The lovingly designed clockface features colourful and faithfully rendered illustrations by renowned bird artists Kilian Mullarney (Ireland) and Dan Zetterström (Sweden). It’s no wonder that this charming birdsong clock is not only highly popular with adults, but with kids as well. Children in particular get a fun introduction to our fine feathered friends and learn to identify the songs of birds they hear in the great outdoors. More fascinating details about the special characteristics, songs, and habitats of the twelve featured European songbirds can be found in the leaflet, “Where and how they live” that comes with the clock. 

Songs of twelve songbirds (pre-set sequence): blackbird – song thrush – blackcap – garden warbler – robin – nightingale – bluethroat – common redstart – collared flycatcher – willow warbler – woodlark – golden oriole
