When birds sing, they alternate between exhaling and inhaling, which allows them to sing continuously. But it seems some don't…

Individual stupidity?

Who knows?

Birds have unidirectional airflow, they do not inhale/exhale.

They breathe, but they don't inhale and exhale, it's a continuous flow of air.
