21、"Keep out or I'll chase you out! This is my property!"

You hear this every spring．It is a long musical sound﹣﹣a bird song! Birds use their songs to communicate different messages to one another．People who study bird sounds are learning their meanings．

Usually it is the male that sings．Early in spring he sings to say that he has picked out a piece of property．He sings to attract a female of his same kind．Together they will raise a family in his territory （领地）．He sings to tell all other birds of his kind to keep out．

Each kind of bird has its own type of song．Cardinals sing something that sounds a little like"What cheer，cheer，cheer．"Towhees sing，"Drink your tea．"

Most of the time，birds pay attention only to the songs of birds of their own kind．Cardinals answer cardinals，and song sparrows answer song sparrows．A cardinal knows that a song sparrow will not try to steal its mate．So you can see one reason why a cardinal may chase away another cardinal but will not bother a song sparrow．

Most different kinds of birds eat different things．To find enough to eat，a bird needs a big piece of land to search in．Many kinds of birds have some ways of dividing up the land into territories．Song sparrows，cardinals ovenbirds，and white﹣throated sparrows are some of the birds that have territorial systems．

Especially in early spring，birds work out the boundaries between their territories by singing"keep out"threats and by chasing and fighting each other．The birds continue singing to tell females that they have set up territories．Neighboring birds seem to agree that there are make believe fences between their pieces of property．Then they do not have to waste energy chasing each other instead of taking care of their young．

Scientists guessed that some birds could recognize their neighbors by small differences in their songs．Two scientists who studied white﹣throated sparrows found that these birds can even tell the difference between songs of individual birds of their own kind．White﹣throated sparrows have songs that seem to say"I'm your neighbor"or"I'm a stranger"or"I'm your neighbor to the west．"Other kinds of birds could tell neighbors from strangers by their songs，too．

22、It was a great pleasure for the family to move to a house with a very big garden. Betty and Tony could climb up trees, grow flowers and even play badminton. They liked to watch the birds flying among the trees in the garden. They even started to put food out to attract more birds.

Everything was fine for a few days until one afternoon there was a strange bumping noise on a window. Betty went outside and found a small bird dead on the grass. Its neck seemed to be broken.

"It must have flown into the window, " Tony said when his sister Betty called him to have a look "Ah, yes, look here. You can see the mark where it hit the window. There are a couple of tiny feathers stuck on the window."

"Poor thing! " Betty said.

During the next month, five more birds died in the same way. "Why would they fly to the windows?" they wondered. Finally they knew the truth. When the birds were flying, they couldn't see into the rooms. All they saw was the reflection(倒影)of the garden. They thought that they were flying into trees because they saw trees reflected by the window.

"Something has to be done to save the bird, " the parents decided.

At first , the family tried keeping curtains(窗帘)across the windows, but this made the room dark. Then they bought some strong black paper and cut out the shape of a hawk.
