i’m lowkey impressed

basically

so birds have drama

like ‘that guy’s a bad dancer’

they gossip about each other

so what’s the scandal

wild

yep

so finches from california sound different?

like aussie vs british english

they have regional dialects

no no no

i still think they’re just screaming

fascinating

but now we know why

like when dogs bark at nothing

we’re the ones who didn’t get it

so birds have a language

wait

exactly

so... bird twitter

like a dictionary but for birds

they mapped finch sounds to meanings

what’s the breakthrough here

bird gossip is still gossip

no like actual science

so they’re just tweeting gossip

they decoded their tweets

zebra finches are the new tiktok

okay but bird language
