This undated handout image obtained July 2, 2020 shows the white-throated sparrow. In the 1950s, bird lovers in Canada easily recognized the song of the white-throated sparrow, a kind of Canadian sparrow, thanks to the three final notes of its song, repeated several times.Words even accompanied them: “Oh my sweet, Ca-na-da, Ca-na-da, Ca-na-da”. But at the end of the last century, biologists noticed that local birds were starting to innovate in western Canada: instead of the triplet ending, their song ended with a series of two notes, duolets, a little syncopated, as if the end had become: “Ca-na, Ca-na, Ca-na”.

A black-footed albatross pair. The US government plans to strafe Midway with poison aimed at eradicating mice that are on a deadly rampage through one of the world’s most important sites for seabirds. Each year, albatrosses return to the same nesting site to meet their mates. They spend time getting reacquainted through billing and dancing rituals, after spending the rest of the year apart, at sea. The area is home to 3 million seabirds, including the largest colony of albatrosses in the world. (Photo by Dan Clark/USFWS)
