• Birds Musical Preferences
  
  Image: Ohio State University <P>Some sparrows, a new study finds, are remarkably picky about which songs they sing, showing a clear preference for melodies sung by birds of the exact same feather. Indeed, Douglas Nelson of Ohio State University reports in today's issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences that male mountain white-crowned sparrows (r

• Interview with Donald Kroodsma
  For over 30 years, Donald Kroodsma has worked to unravel such mysteries of avian communication. Through field studies and laboratory experiments, he's studied the ecological and social forces that may have contributed to the evolution of vocal learning. Kroodsma has paid particular attention to local variation in song types, known as dialects.
  Young parrots, songbirds and hummingbirds learn a repertoire of songs, just as human infants learn to talk. But why is this ability to learn a vocal communication system something we share with birds, but not with our closer relatives, such as the nonhuman primates?
