Abstract Background The vocalizations of birds are dynamic traits that often vary in output with time of day and time of year. By quantifying patterns of diel and seasonal variation in vocal output, we can gain insight into the ecology and evolution

Cumulative cultural evolution is ubiquitous in humans, but is rarely observed in non-human animals. Here, Williams et al. report elaboration of songs over several decades in Savannah sparrows, consistent with cumulative cultural evolution.

The nest environment may limit the ability of nest-bound birds to hear sounds from the outside world. In vocal learning species, such as humans and songbirds, it is vital for young animals to hear the voices of conspecific animals early in life. In s

Plant pollination is influenced by plant traits, pollinator community, plant community, and abiotic conditions. Island ecosystems, which often have reduced pollinator communities, provide unique insights into pollination ecology. Lowbush blueberry, V

Vocal learning is a biologically rare adaptation that underpins both human language and the songs of songbirds. The adaptive value of vocal learning in birds is still poorly understood, but a growing body of literature suggests that vocal learning al

Avian and mammalian colours are thought to be constant in life and in museum specimens, but several early 20th-century taxonomists singled out the Canada Jay (Perisoreus canadensis (Linnaeus, 1766)) as having unstable feather pigments and warned agai

Natural and sexual selection drive colour evolution in animals. However, these different selective forces are often studied independently or without considering environmental variation. We evaluated the roles of natural and sexual selection together
