Various birds alight on a branch, each singing a different tune ("Here's another. Come and see! / Urrah! Urrah! Rah rah ree"), until the branch breaks under the weight of a seemingly inconsequential visitor. The book has rhythm, bird sounds that are great fun to hear and say, and illustrations that depict each cast member as a winged creature of distinction.
