Abstract

Endihnew Tessfa Gedam

Birds are among the most extensively studied organisms; their aspects of behavior as migration, feeding, sexual and social display, and nesting are well documented Naish. Birds are relatively easy to identify compared to other taxa because of their conspicuous nature and therefore particularly interesting to study in community ecology Bird behavior refers to the action of a bird in response to environmental situations. Testosterone (T) regulates avian behaviors such as songs and aggression during the breeding season. However, the role of T in year-round territorial birds is still unknowable, especially in tropical birds
