I think there's something much larger going on here.

Many years ago, just after moving to Atlanta, I was in a car in Piedmont Park one spring evening, listening to the radio. There were many insects and perhaps frogs outside. As I listened I began to hear the fauna harmonizing, in rhythm, with the music.

Flash forward to about 10 years ago. I'm at a friend's home, in their forested three-acre back yard. There are outdoor speakers, and again we have music going. This time I'm certain that I hear the insects working in time with the music.

In both cases I was ready to attribute the perceived accompaniment as psychoacoustic. In other words, I was hearing harmonic and rhythmic resonances. In your case, there is no doubt; the bird is rockin' with you. Hmmm. Seems there is something much larger going on here.

Brings to mind my favorite Christian hymn, "This Is My Father's World":

This is my Father's world,
and to my listening ears
all nature sings, and round me rings
the music of the spheres. (verse 1, part)

This is my Father's world,
the birds their carols raise,
the morning light, the lily white,
declare their maker's praise. (verse 2, part)

P.S.: Nice tune, lol!
