A new study published in Science shows how a neural circuit in Zebra finches, involved in forming the learning of a courtship song, can be manipulated. Scientists effectively implanted a new song in ...
Female zebra finches that did not learn courtship songs from their fathers in their youth can learn the courtship melody as adults through the experience of living with a male, a new study has found.

Animals learn by imitating behaviors, such as when a baby mimics her mother’s speaking voice or a young male zebra finch copies the mating song of an older male tutor, often his father. In a study ...
Researchers have developed a new algorithm capable of identifying features of male zebra finch songs that may underlie the distinction between a short phrase sung during courtship, and the same phrase ...
