Some birds will respond to a shared song type with a song-type match (i.e. with the same song type). [24] This may be an aggressive signal; however, results are mixed. [23] Birds may also interact using repertoire-matches, wherein a bird responds with a song type that is in its rival's repertoire but is not the song that it is currently singing ...
Comparisons of experiments on hand-raised birds to observation of birds in the wild suggest that the fear of owls and hawks is instinctual, but fear of cats is learned.

The long, unbroken song is a clear, bubbling warble delivered high in the air while the bird is rising, circling or hovering. [10]
Studies have shown the ability of some species to identify individual humans and treat them differently based on learned threat assessments. [2] The only mockingbird commonly found in North America is the northern mockingbird. Mockingbirds are known for singing late at night, even past midnight. [3]
