X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p style="text-align: justify\;">We are often
  aware of what we hear in our backyards or local parks\, but to what exten
 t are we aware that birds are listening to each other for information that
  is critical to their survival? Birds listen not only to their own species
  but also to everyone else for important clues about safety\, reproduction
  and resources. Backyard mammals&mdash\;particularly squirrels and chipmun
 ks&mdash\;give warnings that birds respond to\, and even some of our insec
 ts are listening closely to each other. This program emphasizes what birds
 \, mammals and insects are listening to and how they interpret what they h
 ear around them.</p>\n<hr />\n<p style="text-align: justify\;"><strong><im
