Abstract
This research aims to examine the sounds of birds because they represent the sounds of nature that influence the human psyche. The relationship between nature and humans is ancient, intertwined, and intimate. As living beings, humans are part of nature and are therefore influenced by it, just as they influence nature. This is because humans are naturally influenced by their environmental, psychological, and social environments. This relationship is innate and strong, and the sounds of birds, in particular, have multiple connotations and influence human feelings and emotions in an involuntary and direct manner. These sounds are divided into two categories: The first: Song sounds: a melodic sound produced by singing birds, such as the clucking of pigeons and the sounds of nightingales. These sounds indicate calm, joy, comfort, and peace of mind when heard. Second: Calling sounds: Also known as screaming or shouting, these are loud, harsh sounds, such as the crow's cawing and the sounds of falcons. These sounds carry negative connotations, evoking boredom, noise, fear, and anxiety. Keywords: Humans, Birds, Sounds.
