   Why do birds sing?

   • It is the perfect medium for communicating over long distances, or when it is hard to see the singer - and the audience: for example at night or in dense vegetation. Whatever the habitat, birds have a way of singing into it. When a bird sings, it can always be heard, even after it has moved out of sight.

   Why are birds the World's Master Musicians?

   • Birds became the world's master musicians in order to convey to potential mates, rivals and predators all the important things they have to say, from "Clear off!" to "Come on!" And their songs have been shaped by their environment, just as the rap musician of New York delivers a different "tune" to the yodeller in the Swiss mountains.

   Why do some birds sing a chorus?

   • The pair is so co-ordinated that the whole thing sounds like one song. In some species, an entire group of birds may join in a chorus song to defend the territory. Groups of Australian magpies produce a remarkable chorus, varying from quiet warbling to loud caroling. The white-crested laughing thrush also sings a group chorus.

   Why is Dawn a good time to broadcast a song?

   • One reason may be that dawn is the best time for sound to travel, because there is little wind and less other noise and disturbance. Songs broadcast at dawn can be 20 times as effective as those broadcast at midday. And this is a time when birds can't do much else.
