Compliance with ethical standards
:
: All applicable international, national, and institutional guidelines for research on animals were followed. Samples used in this study are based on a non-invasive recording technique from a distance. Birds were not caught, but for few individuals, playback stimulation was performed to trigger an active singing behaviour. This stimulation was kept as short as possible and we are not aware of any consequences for subjects’ breeding or welfare. Passive recording did not require supervision from institutional or regulatory bodies, but authorizations were granted from legal authorities in each different sampling country when needed. In the wintering population, recordings were made within the framework of another research project (for more details see Geberzahn et al. , ).
: The authors declare that they have no conflict of interest.
: Analyses reported in this article can be reproduced using the data provided in Souriau et al. (data Tables with recordings information and spectrograms prints used for the human-based assessment of element variability).
