Science Book News  No. 294                  April 23, 2012

“Bird Sense: What It’s Like To Be a Bird” by Tim Birkhead. Walker, $25, 288 pages. Publication date May 1.
   Birkhead is a professor of behavioral ecology at the University of Sheffield and the author of several previous books, including “The Red Canary.” This book is a “groundbreaking examination of how birds experience the world ... Using technologies that extend our own senses, together with an array of imaginative behavioral test, biologists have been remarkably good at discovering what it's like to be something else.”

Woah, thanks for that, Jim. Just forwarded this to a couple of colleagues who study how scientists employ their senses when they study birds.

ok, this has got to be the greatest science project ever.

Musical Analysis of Birdsong

Quote
‎"From Yeats's golden dove to the nightingale in Berkeley Square, human society has viewed birdsong as a symbol of beauty. But is that response conditioned by societal expectations, or does birdsong really adhere to musical rules? By recording and transcribing the note sequences of common birdsong, we were able to determine that their songs do adhere to the traditional euphonic progression of thirds, fourths and fifths found in most human music."

The model for language transfer, recall, and memory in computational neuroscience is a birdsong model.
