They actually have a different kind of voicebox than you do. That's called a syrinx.
This is my Thompson. She studies birds at Cornell University.
They actually have two independent voice boxes
in birds and humans, the lower respiratory system is shaped like an upside-down slingshot. The top part is the trachea or windpipe and the bottom part of the lungs. These two pieces move air in and out. In humans, the voicebox is called the larynx and it's located above the trachea. It contains vocal folds that vibrate when air flows through to produce sound, and humans primarily shaped that sound with their mouths. But in birds, the voice box is called a syrinx. And it's located at the bottom of the trachea. Instead of just sending air through vocal folds like we do. Birds actually control muscles on the walls of the ceilings to shape and produce sound. Take a look at this Cardinals at St you can actually see the noise coming directly from the chest. The bird extends insurance its neck and opens or closes its beak to refine the noise, but most of the controls actually happen in the series. It's a powerful sound for such a small animal but that's not even the most impressive part.
Cardinals tend to make these whoop notes. And they go by very, very quickly. They're able to produce more pitches than a piano in less than a 10th of a second. They're switching from one side of the series to another seamlessly to make this incredible span of pitches.
The series also lets some birds replicate sounds with astonishing accuracy. For example, BBC Wildlife caught a Lyrebird perfectly imitating a camera in the wild and then, of course, some of them imitate us. Parrots are born communicators from the start their brains are wired for speech. So when
they're first hatched, they're learning right away. And they're learning from everything around them.
But speaking humanely is no easy feat. We've got our vowels A E I O U, our plosives pocket in a variety of consonants that we even struggle to in landscape, rural sort of pull of such clarity and human speech, parents really need to show up their ability to manipulate their vocal tract plosives for example, require our lips to make up for the lack of lips, parents use something called esophageal speech. It's almost like burping that comes from within the trachea. The force of air replicates the plosive. As for vowels, where we use our lips, tongue, and jaw researchers have actually found that parents move their tongues forward and backward and it is just their beak opening to alter the sound
and it seems like they are the only birds that are actually using their tongue like humans do to shave this down that's coming out.
parrots have a natural desire to communicate. In the wild. They form strong bonds with their flocks, but in captivity,
the parrot forms a social bond with you and they want to communicate with you and they have the vocal anatomy to start mimicking you.
When parents live with us. We're their flock, and they're determined to sing our song. So in this video, I showed you some of the physiology that lets birds produce sounds, but I wanted a quick and easy way to show you some of the interesting background research on the neurology that allows someone to speak so I created a website with Wix where I've compiled a bunch of extras including research and related content that gets you inside the brains of these animals. It's a super easy way to make a website so click on the link below to make your own which doesn't directly impact editorial but their support does make videos like this possible. So go check them out, and then it comes by us perfect character and he's hiding somewhere. We're gonna have to get him out myself.
