Anna you ask to be answered in English, yet you also mention, in Spanish, hat you may need some \"folklore...\" or amm I mistaken...what I can add is ...
Why do birds sing?
The cock -male- bird sings from several places in his territory. His song warns off other birds of his own kind. this is one reason
why birds sing.
Another is the \"breeding song\"
The cock bird sings to attract the hen or female.
His song tells her that he has a safe territory. Here they can nest. In a safe territory there will be plenty of food for their young.
What does the song mean?
Each kind f bird has its own song. When the blackbrd sings, he says,
\" I am a blackbird. This is my territory. I am looking for mate.\"
Singing in flight
Birds usually sing when perching. Many birds also sing when flying.
The skylark sings as it flies upwards and as it hovers. The skylark`s song is a very loud, warbling sound. Its song lasts a long time.
How do they do it?
The calls and songs of birds come from their throats.
Even whistling sounds are made this way.
I hope you have a Merry Christmas, Anna.
Patricia.

I have found this explanation about the bird\'s sound:
(benteveo/bichofeo=kiskadee)
LISTEN FOR THE KISKADEE
Named for its call, \"kis-ka-dee\" which can be heard all around the island, this bird was introduced from Trinidad in 1957 to control the anole lizard. The kiskadee Pitangus sulphuratus has become a pest. It feasts on soft-skinned fruits and berries, competing with other birds for food and preying on other eggs and young.

The great kiskadee is named for its loud kis-ka-dee call. "
Quizá algún colega te pueda confirmar. Esto lo encontré buscando en Google.

kiskadee
Its name says it (great kiskadee). This is interestingly rendered, among many others, in the site http://www.1000plus.com/BirdSong/birdsngb.html as "qu'est-ce qu'il dit?" (what's he say?)

Many bird names in English are derived from the sounds they make. Examples: whippoorwill, chickadee.
