I'm not 100% on this, but I believe it had something to do with air shortage. The birds were mostly male, which meant they sang. As strange as it may be to bring a noisemaker into a trench where you dig for your life, I'm fairly sure they were an indication of air shortage; what with collapses and all.
Based off my own ingenuity, I'd say that they may have been used as a distraction method as well, to lead enemies into traps.
Once again, not 100%, but there are some possibilities.
Another viewpoint: I think ,probably, to detect poison gas used by the enemy.

What is a reserve trench?
Reserve trenches were used as supplies for the trenches out the front. In world war one, they had come up with a technique of hiding in trenches before they fight. To do this properly, they had made them zig-zags. The trenches on the front line were where the soldiers would fight from. Reserve trenches were used in case these people had anything happen to them and they needed to use more trenches and more men. Throughout the war, the conditions of the front line trenches became worse as the communication and reserve trenches improved. I hope that helped :)
