Hard bites and slow songs: How beak size affects the singing and #evolution of songbirds
https://theconversation.com/hard-bites-and-slow-songs-how-beak-size-affects-the-singing-and-evolution-of-songbirds-243165
"#Songbirds with strong bites are not only slow eaters, they are also slow singers... large-billed species produce fewer syllables per second; they sing at lower trill rates. They also sing with a lower vocal range and at a lower pitch... interestingly, even #birds of the same species show small differences in their song based on much subtler differences in beak size."
