Nonfiction: Animal Behavior, Communication, or Language

I’m looking for some nonfiction animal behavior reading suggestions. I love learning about animal communication and exploring why/why not animals have language. Also I like knowing about how and why animals view the world differently from us. I’d be happy to see what you might recommend!

Love:
– Books: Why Animals Talk, The Bird Way, Alex & Me
– Jennifer Ackerman’s writing style
– Books with a sexy sexy citation list

Don’t Love:
– Temple Grandin’s writing style
– Books that contain A LOT of anecdotal evidence. Ick!

Bonus points: 1) focuses on birds, land mammals, or cetaceans, 2) female author
