People usually sing because they like music or because they feel happy. They express their
happiness by singing. When a bird sings, however, its song usually means much more than that
the bird is happy. Birds have many reasons for singing. They sing to give information. Their
songs are their language. The most beautiful songs are sung by male birds. They sing when they
want to attract a female bird. It is their way of saying that they are looking for a wife. Birds also
sing to tell other birds to keep away. To a bird, his tree or even a branch of a tree is his home. He
does not want strangers to come near him, so he sings to warn them. If a bird cannot sing well, he
usually has some other means of giving important information. Some birds dance, spread out
their tails or make other signs.
