So for purposes of my thesis I'm curled up in bed reading books and papers on songbird vocalization, attempting to come up with a satisfactory definition of the difference between a song and a call. The problem is, this is biology, and our petty human definitions are very frequently NOT satisfactory, so this has only led to me having a crazy-eyed meltdown on Twitter.
Thought I would share the Storify, for anyone who needs a laugh. Or a cautionary tale.
Biology is the worst science.
