Androgens and estrogens are crucial for the differentiation and function of the vocal control system of songbirds. A major source of estrogens in songbirds is the cerebral aromatization of circulating testosterone by aromatase (ARO). In the vocal control system, songbirds have a unique estrogen rece

Avian vocal control regions of adult male songbirds contain opioid peptides and receptors, suggesting that opioids play a role in avian vocal behavior control. In a previous study, we found no difference in opioid receptor densities in singing versus nonsinging adult male dark-eyed juncos (Junco hye

Songbirds have a complex neural network for learning and production of song, namely the neural song system. Several nuclei of the song system contain androgen receptors (AR), and the neostriatal nucleus HVc also contains alpha type estrogen receptors (ER). Many songbird species show seasonal changes
