Curr Biol. 2020 Aug 17;30(16):R957-R959. doi: 10.1016/j.cub.2020.06.055.

Abstract

A new white-throated sparrow song has overtaken most of Canada in less than 20 years. The explanation for this remarkably fast spread may lie in the southern migratory grounds, where populations from across Canada converge each winter.
