Birds contribute prominently to the terrestrial soundscapes on Earth. The sounds can arise from different sources, such as drumming by woodpeckers, bill clapping by storks or feather vibrations in the courtship flights of snipes and hummingbirds. However, most avian sounds are generated in the avian vocal organ, the syrinx. Vocal behavior is used in many different contexts and features prominently in mate choice and reproduction. It is therefore thought to have played an important role in the remarkable diversification of birds.
鸟类在地球上的陆地声音景观中起着重要作用。这些声音可能来自不同的来源，如啄木鸟的啄木声、鹳的喙击声或 snipe 和蜂鸟求偶飞行中的羽毛振动声。然而，大多数鸟类的声音是由鸟类的发声器官——鸣管产生的。鸟类的发声行为用于许多不同的情境，在配偶选择和繁殖中起着重要作用。因此，人们认为它在鸟类显著的多样化中发挥了重要作用。
