Summary

Bird song learning pathway. Nucleus HVC feeds information into two pathways that ultimately lead to the neurons in the tracheosyringeal half of the hypoglossal nucleus (nXIIts) that project to vocal muscles. HVC projects to nucleus RA directly (PDP), and indirectly via Area X, the dorsolateral anterior thalamic nucleus (DLM), and LMAN (AFP) in a manner that shares similarities with the mammalian pathway cortex→basal ganglia→thalamus→cortex.
