I have had an Audubon Singing Bird Clock for several years, but when it quit working properly I wanted to replace it. In doing so, I was very disappointed with the new one. With my old clock, I could hear the birds singing throughout the whole house, but the new one was so quiet, I had to be right next to it to hear the sounds! I wanted to return it for a replacement, but was told others were disappointed also so there seemed to be no need to try another one. I REALLY hope the makers of the Audubon Bird Clock will make some improvements on the next ones they produce. Sometime in the future, I will try again and hopefully will receive a much improved clock!

An attractively styled wall clock with simplicity and charm and an added feature. The 12 birds in place of numbers sing out hourly. A much underestimated addition to our sitting/TV room, the birds chirp twice. The clock's photocell quiets during night. Our house cats liked it so much they jumped at it until it fell and cracked. Although it still works, I am replacing it. It may especially be appreciated by someone housebound.

The clock looks nice and it plays different bird songs on the hour. It turns the sound off when the lights are off.

The bird songs are fairly high fidelity and have just the right volume.

If you like a bird song once an hour along with a clock that is sufficiently large to be read across the room, you need not go further.

Got this for christmas for my wife who loves it. Reason for 4 stars instead of 5 is the electronic eye that adjusts the volume to the amount of light. Good so it won't be loud at night when you are trying to sleep but the placement for this clock was in our kitchen where light levels are low. Usually when we are in the kitchen the lights are on so its ok, but its not very loud when the lights are out in the daytime. In a well lit area or with the lights on it is great.

Not only did the vendor readily acknowledge they had numerous complaints about the clock, they also said there was no reason to send back a defective one.

I read other's reviews on this clock before I decided to get it for a Christmas gift. They were right! The clock is very attractive and so far works well. Major drawback-- Can barely hear the very pleasant bird calls! Someone needs to go back and improve this thing. Why not add a volume control? Very disappointed that my mother is unable to hear the lovely songs. Whoever designed this clock was a moron.

The hands on the first clock spun around. They weren't attached correctly. Clock #2 had the same problem. Clock 3 didn't work at all. I am now waiting for a refund. I have now purchased one from Cracker Barrel that was on sale for 1/2 price and works properly.

I think this clock is a delightful addition to any home. It plays the bird songs on the hour and sounds like they are in the room with you.

Looks and sounds great...only complaint is that you cannot adjust the volume. We have our clock in a well lit area (day and night) so the sensor is getting a lot of light, but it's still not as loud as we want it to be.

The only negative thing that I found in this model, was the sound of the birds; too low. I put new batteries of the best alkaline brand in the market, and the sound was same: too low,low. In the brief instructions included, no appear nothing about how increase the volumen in order to ear the songs of the birds.

This is my 2nd CLock that I have, the first was the model smaller, same brand, and the sound of the birds was !excelent!

Please, show me, and future buyers, how to increase de volumen, or, if I has to return the item.

If this problem is corrected, my opinion wil be; !!FIVE STARS!!
