Previously we showed that female budgerigars like to listen to rhythm 🎵 just like we humans do. In a new study, we showed that male budgerigar courtship song actually has similar rhythmic properties to human music. doi.org/10.1111/nyas...

🎼What is octave equivalence?
🎶Do animals use notes and octaves?

In the second episode of Acoustic World, we talk about it with @mhoeschele.bsky.social from ARI Vienna’s "Musicality and Bioacoustics" group.

Do you want to do a PhD at the intersection of machine learning and bioacoustics? Join our team to work on improving bioacoustic assessment and monitoring and/or help decode the complex animal vocalizations such as those from elephants and budgies.

I was happy to have been part of a big team science study for the first time. 🙂 Thanks ManyBirds team!

Do other animals have "rhythm"? It turns out that answering this question is no simple task. Animals produce rhythms for a variety of mechanical reasons (e.g., walking speed, heart beats) without it necessarily implying an understanding of rhythmicity. See our new preprint: osf.io/preprints/os...
