Thank you for your comment. People in Beijing had/have songbirds as pets and 
they take them to meet in parks etc. so they can learn to sing from one 
another. There is quite a culture of this, and they sit around either in 
parks or cafes with their birds in bamboo cages trying to outdo each other 
with the beauty of their songs.
