  1. 🐦 NEW: Biologists measured call amplitude in 123 bird species across #Massachusetts and #Brazil using #golf rangefinders paired with #sound meters, adding first-time #data for 113 of them.

    Volumes spanned 58 dB, from #hummingbirds near conversational levels to the bare-throated #bellbird and red-legged #seriema above 120 dB. The louder #species tend to be larger with wider beaks.

  6. 🐦 NEW: #DNA evidence traces all 4,000 songbird species back to #Australia and the ancient supercontinent #Gondwana.

    #Songbirds are among the few #animals, alongside #parrots, #hummingbirds, and #humans, that learn their #songs from parents and peers rather than instinct. Researchers say just six minutes of birdsong can improve well-being and lower heart rates.
