Female eavesdropping on male song contests in songbirds.

TL;DR: Eavesdropping on male-male vocal interactions is a means by which females can compare different males' singing behavior directly and make immediate comparisons between them.
Journal ArticleDOI

Pitch shifts and song structure indicate male quality in the dawn chorus of black-capped chickadees

TL;DR: Analysis of dawn chorus songs and singing behaviour of males whose winter-flock dominance status was determined indicates a mechanism by which pitch shifting during the dawn chorus of black-capped chickadees could provide a reliable indicator of relative male quality.
Journal ArticleDOI

Overlapping and matching in the song contests of black-capped chickadees

TL;DR: In this article, the authors explore the consequences of overlapping and frequency matching during song contests of male black-capped chickadees, Poecile atricapillus, using interactive playback, and demonstrate that males of different quality show different behavioural responses to territorial intruders.
Journal ArticleDOI

Field test of an affordable, portable, wireless microphone array for spatial monitoring of animal ecology and behaviour

TL;DR: A field test of a new wireless microphone array system that has multiple advantages over previous systems: it is relatively inexpensive, commercially available, includes an integrated global positioning system (GPS) for time-synchronizing microphones, and it is small enough to fit in a backpack.
