Title Vocal gestures of shared syllable types in cardinals
Date 1997
Description In songbirds, songs are learned by memorization and copying of tutor song and such copies can be remarkably accurate. However, it is not known whether acoustic similarity is generated by equally similar vocal gestures. We studied syringeal and respiratory motor patterns of syllable types shared by up to 6 individual cardinals (Cardinalis cardinalis) by recording bilateral bronchial airflow, subsyringeal aii sac pressure, and acoustic output.
