Description

The Singvögel (German for “songbirds”) is the classic in the KooKoo range of bird voices wall clocks. A beautifully designed, colourful dial with 12 detailed illustrations by the renowned bird artists Dan Zetterström (Sweden) and Killian Mullarney (Ireland), as well as an elegant, cream-yellow rim, characterise this model.
Every full hour you’ll hear for 10 seconds the voice of one of the European songbirds - from the blackbird to the woodlark. The genuine chants were all recorded in European forests and fields by Jean-Claude Roché. The bird voices emanating from this pretty clock sound so authentic that surprised visitors will most likely ask where the beautiful chirping birds are hidden.
In depth fascinating facts about the special characteristics, songs, and habitats of the 12 featured birds can be found in the leaflet “Where and how they live” that comes with the clock. Children in particular get a fun introduction to European songbirds and quickly learn to identify the songs of birds they otherwise might not have heard yet.
Especially important, and not only for children, is a practical light sensor that automatically switches off the birds' voices when it gets dark and ensures a peaceful night.
