CANADA'S SPARROWS
ARE SINGING A NEW SONG
The northern sparrow has suddenly
changed its familiar song,
and ornithologists are noticing
this dramatic change throughout
north American boreal forests.
Noted behavioral ecologist,
Scott Ramsay, has discovered
the dramatic change.
"They're all singing something weird,"
he said.
Their familiar triplet ending,
"Old Sam, Peabody-Peabody-Peabody"
has now changed into a shorter
doublet-ending song.
Only the birds know why.
We hope it's not a result of our
climate change pressures.
