The complex acoustic repertoire of a highly social species, the Noisy Miner,Manorina melanocephala

Abstract: Communication is an essential component of social interactions between individuals, particularly in larger group sizes. To gain further insight into the factors that underpin cooperative behaviour, herein we examine the acoustic repertoire of the Noisy Miner, Manorina melanocephala, a cooperative species that lives in large colonies. To determine the structure and composition of the Noisy Miner repertoire, we measured the call rates and major acoustic parameters of common vocalisations from colour-banded indiv… Show more

“…Similarly, aerial alarms were given to gliding models or live, flying birds. These two call types are also consistent with previous spectrographic and quantitative descriptions of aerial and chur calls (Doohan, 2014;Holt, 2013;Jurisevic & Sanderson, 1994a, 1994bLowry et al, 2012;Magrath & Bennett, 2012;Wood, Sanderson, & Evans, 2000).…”

“…obs. ; Holt, 2013;Kennedy et al, 2009). In our sample of responses to raptor glider models, the mean aerial alarm call length was 1.7 s, with 1-2 calls being given over a period of 1-4 s. In response to taxidermic raptor models, chur calls were a mean length of 2.4 s, with calling lasting for between 6 s and 5 min (when the model was removed).…”
