## Abstract To assess which hormones are capable of masculinizing the neural song system of zebra finch hatchlings, we implanted female hatchlings with estrogen (estradiol [E2], 75 ΞΌg, __n__ = 9), testosterone (T, 75β88 ΞΌg, __n__ = 13), androstenedione (AE, 75 ΞΌg, __n__ = 7), progesterone (P, 117 ΞΌ
## Abstract Songbirds demonstrate songβ and spatialβlearning, forms of memory that appear distinct in formal characteristics and fitting the descriptions and criteria of procedural and episodicβlike memory function, respectively. As in other vertebrates, the neural pathways underlying these forms o
