he had adorned the entire world with. Another standpoint stated that birds sang a welcome song for the sun, expressing their keenness for the sunrise, which symbolized food, warmth and protection.

It states that the dawn chorus signifies the warning signals given by each bird as it announces the re-establishment of its territory for the purpose of courtship, nesting and food getting. All of these are the fundamental and basic steps to breeding and the dawn chorus is just a way to warn other counterparts to keep away from their respective territories.
