Ornithologen haben festgestellt<\/a>, dass wei\u00dfe Glockenv\u00f6gel des n\u00f6rdlichen Amazonas den lautesten Paarungsruf von allen V\u00f6geln haben. Der m\u00e4nnliche Glockenvogel ruft wenn Weibchen in der N\u00e4he sind und ist bis zu 125 Dezibel laut. Lauter als eine Kettens\u00e4ge. Klingt zu dem auch noch ziemlich abgefahren.<\/p>\n

The mating call also comes with a strange performance. The males turn their back to the female, lower their tail and head, and puff up. \u201cAnd then all of a sudden, boom,\u201d Podos says \u2014 one note comes screeching out, and the bird flips around dramatically to sing the second tone directly into the female\u2019s face. The researchers think this volume might damage the female\u2019s hearing, but maybe it\u2019s a sacrifice she is willing to make for the sake of a good mate…<\/p>\n

Species from the Amazon are under intense sexual selection pressures, so it makes sense that two of the loudest birds on record are from the region. Also, the screaming piha (another very loud bird) and white bellbirds are fruit-eaters, and (study coauthor Jeff Podos of University of Massachusetts Amherst) thinks the wide beaks needed for choking down berries could also help project loud calls.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
