  <title><![CDATA[It’s a sing‑off! Myth‑busting about birds and sex when it comes to defending the nest]]></title>
  <body><![CDATA[<p dir="ltr">Assistant Professor&nbsp;<a href="https://biosciences.gatech.edu/people/benjamin%20freeman">Benjamin Freeman</a> and graduate student&nbsp;<strong>Shreyas Arashanapalli&nbsp;</strong>of the&nbsp;<a href="https://biosciences.gatech.edu/">School of Biological Sciences</a> detail their study on the use of birdsong for territorial defense. They highlight that<strong>&nbsp;</strong>male birds — and many female birds — sing and defend territories. Their examination uncovered that cooperative territorial defense is especially common in birds with long-term social bonds or that live close to the equator.</p>]]></body>
