Scientists discover what makes bird song beautiful

German scientists from the University of Tübingen discovered what makes bird song more pleasant by having 84 participants listen to vocalizations from 123 European bird species. The blackbird ranked first as having the most pleasant song, while the barn owl came last. The results indicate that songs with narrower bandwidth, greater complexity, higher frequencies, and relatively low amplitude are perceived as more pleasant, and that prior knowledge about birds did not influence the rankings, suggesting that the pleasure is linked to something more fundamental than simply recognizing the species. The researchers believe we may be biologically predisposed to prefer more variable and moderate sounds, which function as signals of a safe and healthy environment.
