Birds such as nightingales and mockingbirds imitate other birds' songs in their environment Is this behavior an instinct or learned Explain?
Although a noted songster, possessing a sweet song, even during the night, the nightingale does not imitate other birds songs. The mockingbird does, however, and even cell phone rings and other human made sounds. The mockingbird can imitate up to 80 other birds songs, and this appears to be an instinctive behavior.
Where did the catbird get its name?
Most books I've consulted (seeking an answer to the same question) say that the call which sounds like a cat mewing is responsible for the name. However, I've also observed that when a cat is around, the catbird will perch above the cat and call repeatedly and loudly (mew, mew, mew). Often other catbirds will answer with the same call.
