Translating Philippe B's nightbird tendencies, the 14 songs of the album describe the course of a protagonist from the shadows to the light. Spread out over the course of one year, Ornithologie, la nuit accompanies the main character on his search for meaning and daily pleasures in order to achieve healing as the year progresses.

Second album from francophone singer-songwriter Philippe B.
