Like in humans, altering the experience of auditory feedback in zebra finches results in articulatory disruption. The song of a male zebra finch consists of repeated stereotyped sequences of vocal units, and learned changes can be induced by experimentally altering acoustic perception. Recent technologies to record finch vocalizations using bone conduction microphones allow for new stimulus options. ... read moreIn order to investigate the role of auditory feedback in song maintenance, male zebra finches of 3-6 months were affixed with piezoelectric accelerometers that recorded them under white noise feedback conditions for one week.
