'Out of tune': consequences of inbreeding on bird song. [PDF]
Proc Biol Sci, 2016 : The expression of bird song is expected to signal male quality to females. 'Quality' is determined by genetic and environmental factors, but, surprisingly, there is very limited evidence if and how genetic aspects of male quality are reflected in song.

[About the history of the songs of birds or the songs of birds as history].
Historia, ciencias, saude--Manguinhos, 2022 Just as it is possible to trace a history of the songs of birds, of their reception by human beings, and of how humans relate to them, it is also possible to speculate on whether these songs can function as history, a living, resounding history, to which degree and in which ways. As well as on how that avian story would differ from the human one, or if

Species-Specific Responses of Bird Song Output in the Presence of Drones
Drones, 2021 Drones are now widely used to study wildlife, but their application in the study of bioacoustics is limited. Drones can be used to collect data on bird vocalizations, but an ongoing concern is that noise from drones could change bird vocalization ...

Dopamine regulation of human speech and bird song: a critical review. [PDF]
Brain Lang, 2012 To understand the neural basis of human speech control, extensive research has been done using a variety of methodologies in a range of experimental models. Nevertheless, several critical questions about learned vocal motor control still remain open. One

Nature, 1880 YOUR correspondent “A. N.” (antea, p. 97) does not seem to be aware that the best observers are nowadays agreed in believing that the hen cuckoo does not sing.
