Description
Song sparrows can sing a huge variety of songs. They can sing almost twenty unique tunes and thousands of varying unrehearsed song on their underlying theme. Keeping this ability in mind, these birds have been named ‘song sparrow’ and truthfully fits on them. Their songs are a combination of recurring notes, speedily emitting unique notes and shrill. The songs are so much unique, accurate and clear that it can be identified by humans easily. Each song can be identified uniquely through their vibrations. Although they can sing a variety of songs with different notes, vibrations, and themes, they usually stick to one song before shifting to another one. The songs last for 2 to 4 seconds. In the start, song sparrows usually learn their singing from nearby sparrows, and they usually follow the same pattern and rhythm. These song similarities help them in identifying their neighbors, and also to distinguish their neighbor from strangers. During breeding season, male song sparrow claims their territory by singing a song. This singing usually starts in the month of February.
