🐦Northern cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis)
🐦Yellowhammer (Emberiza citrinella) -

Scientists find building blocks of #birdsong's 'spectacular #diversity'
Victoria Gill, July 23, 2026
Excerpt: "This link between the environment and its #NaturalSoundscape, Bacquelé explained, is being transformed by #HumanActivity.
" 'I think this research has opened up a new way to see songs as something [intrinsically] linked with the environment,' he told BBC News.
" 'So, we could try to use these motifs to help us understand how birds could adapt to the new #BackgroundNoise [that we produce].'
"#NaturalSound, Bacquelé added, is an an important part of our own connection to #nature and is worth conserving.
" 'If you think of a #forest, near your town or near your house, you think about the songs of the birds in the morning when you go outside.
" 'And if a bird in a #forest has a specific song, if you destroy the forest, then that song may not be adapted any more to the new environment.' "

The International Dawn Chorus Day is coming up this Sunday on May 3rd!
"There is no single dawn chorus, but the harmonies of hundreds of bird voices at first light change from place to place in a huge wave that surfs around the world as the planet rotates."

Salut, ceci s'adresse aux amoureux des oiseaux et des humains !

Marcus Coates explique son projet artistique. Il a enregistré des chants d'oiseaux, les a ralentis de 20, voire 30 fois, a demandé à des chanteurs et des artistes de reproduire le son ainsi obtenu, les a enregistrés, puis a accéléré le résultat pour le ramener à sa vitesse d'origine.
Le résultat sonore est fantastique, tout comme le résultat en termes de mouvement.

Hooiii, this is for birds and human lovers!

Marcus Coates explain about his artistic project. He recorded bird songs, slowed down 20 or even 30 times, get singers and performers reproduce the resulted sound, record them and accelerate the result to original speed.
Fantastic how it sounds but also the motion result. Not hummingbirds but humanbirds!

If you're into tropical birds, I recommend giving @avesbrasil a look and hopefully a follow.
It will show you amazing photos, songs/sounds and distribution maps of many interesting species in Brazil.
It's currently criminally underfollowed at only 508 followers.

A young male Bewick’s Wren (Thryomanes bewickii) learns to sing from neighboring adult males while coming of age in his parents’ territory. His song develops with subtle differences—a note changed here, a syllable there. The melodious signature he acquires between 30 and 60 days will be his for life.

Amsel, Zilpzalp und Mönchsgrasmücke …
Ein sonniger Morgen. Die Amseln singen seit mehr als vier Stunden unermüdlich. Ab und zu mischt sich ein Buchfink ein. Der Zilpzalp, eine Art Soprano Continuo des Vogelkonzerts, macht Pause.
Ich vermisse die Mönchsgrasmücke. Ein Rotkehlchen singt und jetzt hört man auch die Blaumeise. Ein Stieglitz wischt kurz vorbei.

Löwenzahnzeit im Hochsauerland

Dazu ein kleiner Hinweis für Menschen wie mich, die Schwierigkeiten haben, Vögel nach ihrem Gesang zu bestimmen.

I heard one of my favourite #BirdSongs in #Coquitlam last night (kʷikʷəƛ̓əm territory), a loopy upward spiral song belonging to the Swainson's Thrush.
They were singing in a tree in a friend's yard where my kiddo had been picking #salmonberries.

Scientists sound the alarm over dramatic loss of 3 billion #birds in #NorthAmerica: ‘We’re watching … #extinction happen’
Story by Brittany Davies, July 14, 2023
"Since the 1970s, bird enthusiasts have watched the skies empty and heard the #birdsongs go silent as nearly 3 billion birds vanished in North America. Disturbed by the findings of an expansive body of research, scientists across the globe are sounding the alarm as half of the world’s bird populations are in decline.
"Found in every corner of the world from the snowy tundra of the #Arctic to the lush rainforests of the #Amazon, birds play a critical role in maintaining the delicate balance of their #ecosystems. Robust and diverse bird populations advance #pollination, help transport #seeds, and fertilize the #soil with their droppings.
"Observing and cataloging these fascinating creatures has long been a popular hobby and an important source of data for researchers and conservationists. Thanks in part to #CitizenScience reporting sites such as eBird, researchers have collected a wealth of information documenting the troubling decline of bird populations on nearly every continent.
"Peter Marra, a conservation biologist and dean of Georgetown University’s #EarthCommons Institute, and his colleagues studied multiple bird-monitoring datasets and found a disturbing trend. Using different methods to estimate population changes, Marra told Knowable Magazine, 'they all told us the same thing, which was that we’re watching the process of extinction happen.'"
However, the article goes on to say:
"Although the situation may seem dire, the news is not all bad. The tireless work of conservationists has restored numerous bird species from the edge of extinction, and populations of wetland species are increasing due in part to political action to protect their habitats. These stories of hope show that it is not impossible to reverse the decline.
"In addition to supporting wide-scale change and devoting resources to protecting #CriticalHabitats, restoring the bird population can begin in your local community and even your own #backyard. Take action at home by creating a #BirdSanctuary by growing #NativePlants and providing safe spaces for birds to eat, rest, and reproduce. Join a birding organization and participate in bird data collection.
"The knowledge shared across important crowd-sourced databases provides essential information to researchers on the state of birds."

@barbarakb Thanks for the tip about Cornell's Merlin app. I've installed it now.
I've lived in Michigan for most of my adult life but I grew up in NY state about 25 miles from Cornell. I remember visiting Sapsucker Woods, their bird sanctuary area, when I was in high school.
