I wonder if some bird expert actually checked whether or not birds speak with frequency-modulated words instead of our familiar amplitude modulation.
Checked, not assumed it was so obviously absurd someone checked negative already.
Listen to a bird chirping - the chirps are not at regular intervals. Maybe the offset from some basic rhythm is the encoding?
Have you noticed, that when you listen to a regular sound, you expect the next sound happen, and if it don't, there is an expecting tension?
So, less tension is -1, regular is 0 and more tension is +1.
All that is left is to decode this trinary morse code and you can talk to birds.

Bird song researchers have found out, that like whales, Birds have pop songs that they sing, that spread out over a species or even jump over species barriers... some even imitate ring tones, that they like.

I've got a little friend I once saved from a playfull cat after he fell, (or thrown) out of his nest.
He's a big bird now, but still sometimes sleeps in my livingroom. (Lether couch, stone floors)
Once in a while he wakes me up with a very loud: KRAKWAIIEK KRAA KRA KRWAIEEET...etc, wich I'm pretty sure by now means: Open the freakin window, I wanna get outta here.
O, and give me some food while you're at it.

They say cu-cu-ri-gu around here. I did encounter one who sounded more like the vocalist of Six Feet Under though. I don't know what that one had...maybe he just liked the band.
