Prosody in birdsong: A review and perspective

Neuroscience and Biobehavioral Reviews, 2017
Birdsong shows striking parallels with human speech. Previous comparisons between birdsong and human vocalizations focused on syntax, phonology and phonetics. In this review, we propose that future comparative research should expand its focus to include prosody, i.e. the temporal and melodic properties that extend over larger units of song. To this end,

Neurogenetics of birdsong

Current Opinion in Neurobiology, 2013
Songbirds are a productive model organism to study the neural basis of auditory-guided vocal motor learning. Like human babies, juvenile songbirds learn many of their vocalizations by imitating an adult conspecific. This process is a product of genetic predispositions and the individual's life experience and has been investigated mainly by ...

Birdsong for neurobiologists

Neuron, 1989
Song is a stereotyped behavior, yet its development depends on sensory feedback and learning. Early bird fanciers recognized that young birds must have a good tutor to become a good singer. They also knew that birds could be bred for more elaborate songs, as exemplified by different breeds of canaries selected for different ways of singing. Thus,

Birdsong.

American Psychologist, 1998
Vocalizations used by birds for territory defense, mate attraction, or both are often referred to as a given species' song. Birdsong refers to the often complex vocalizations produced most frequently by males of species that are members of the songbird order (passeriformes).
