These highly social birds can make ‘sentences,’ just like humans

Tits amazing are birds Japanese. If you didn’t get that, you wouldn’t be alone: Humans figure out the meaning of sentences like this using grammatical rules such as word order. It turns out that Japanese tits, social birds that live in Japan and the Russian Far East, do it too. These wild birds respond to calls they’ve never heard before only if the chirps are in the right order, researchers report today in Current Biology.

When a predator threatens the flock, Japanese tits produce something called a “mobbing call,” with the sequence ABC-D. By itself, the ABC part of the call means “danger.” But the D part of the call—similar to the “recruitment call” of a close relative, the willow tit—attracts flock members when there’s something to share, such as food. When the two parts are produced together, Japanese tits flock together to mob the intruder.

April 24th is Armenian Genocide memorial day. Please spare a moment in your thoughts for the 1.5 million brutally murdered by Turkey because of their religion and ethnicity lasting from 1915-1917. Many nations refuse to recognize this genocide because they Turkish economic and political backlash. It is disgusting how our political class sacrifice our ideals of freedom and justice for a bit of material gain.
