 Have you ever wondered why birds sing? Maybe you thought that they were just happy. After all, you probably sing when you are happy.

Some scientists believe that birds do sing some of time just because they are happy. However, they sing most of the time for a very different reason. Their singing is a warning to other birds to stay out of their territory.

Do you know what a “territory” is? A territory is an area that an animal, usually the male(man, instead of woman),claims(声明) as its own. Only he and his family are welcome there. No other families of the same kind are welcome. Your yard and house are your territory where only your family and friends are welcome. If a stranger should enter your territory and frighten(恐吓)you, you might shout. Probably this would be enough to frighten him away.

If so, you have actually frightened the stranger away without having to fight him. A bird does the same thing. But he expects an outsider almost any time, especially at nesting(筑巢)season. So he is screaming all the time, whether he can see an outsider or not. This screaming is what we call a bird’s song, and it is usually enough to keep an outsider away.

Birds sing loudest in spring when they are trying to attract a mate and warn others not to enter the territory of theirs.

You can see that birds have a language of their own. Most of it has to do with attracting mates and setting up territories.

“Do you like my dress?” She asked a stranger. “My mum made it just for me,” She said with tears in her eyes.

“Well, I think it's very pretty, so tell me, little girl, why are you crying?”

The little girl answered in a low voice, “After mum made me this dress, she went away. My dad says that she's up in heaven now with Grandfather.”

Finally the woman realized why she was crying. She felt very sorry for the little girl and gently held the child in her arms.

Then suddenly the little girl did something a bit strange. She stopped crying, walked back from the woman and began to sing. She sang softly. It was the sweetest sound the woman had ever heard, almost like the song of a very small bird.

After the child stopped singing, she said to the lady, “My mum often sang that song to me before she went away, and she asked me to sing it whenever I started crying and it would make me stop.”

“See”, she said loudly, “it did, and now my eyes are dry!”

Just before the lady wanted to go, the girl showed her a spot (印迹) on her dress, and said, “Right here is where my mum kissed  my dress, and here,” pointing to another spot, “and here is another kiss, and here, and here. Mum said that she put all those kisses on my dress so that I would forget my sadness.”

Then the lady realized that she wasn't just looking at a dress, no, she was looking at a mother. The mother knew that she was going away and would not be there to kiss away her daughter's hurts any longer.
