from adult songbirds.</span> <span data-start-time='5771' data-end-time='15396'> But when those young birds do not have older ones to teach them, they have less success attracting mates.</span> <span data-start-time='15396' data-end-time='30625'>For five years, ecologist Ross Crates with Australian National University has studied the singing ability and mating success of birds called regent honeyeaters.</span> <span data-start-time='30625' data-end-time='37604'>These black and yellow birds were once common across Australia.</span> <span data-start-time='37604' data-end-time='50708'> But loss of their living space since the 1950s has decreased their population to only about 300 or 400 wild birds today.</span> <span data-start-time='50708' data-end-time='56688'>Male birds once formed large groups in the winter.</span> <span data-start-time='56688' data-end-time='62875'>Now they are spread out across the country, so many fly alone.</span> <span data-start-time='62875' data-end-time='71333'>That means fewer honeyeater adults are nearby during the young birds’ first year of life.</span> <span data-start-time='71333' data-end-time='84188'>“Song learning in many birds is a process similar to humans learning languages, they learn by listening to other individuals,” said Crates.</span> <span data-start-time='84188' data-end-time='91083'>“If you can’t listen to other individuals, you don’t know what you should be learning.”</span> </p></div><div class='control-buttons-sticky' style='display:none;'><div class='control-buttons'><button title='Back' class='back'
