Based on part two of Trifles, the bird’s singing is most likely symbolize to Mrs. Wright's freedom and beauty.

The object which has been used as a symbol in the play “Trifles” is the bird. The bird is the representation of Mrs. Wright who is pretty, lovely and shy. The birdcage represents the trap in which Mrs. Wright was trapped in after her marriage. As it is very difficult for a bird to escape from the cage and fly in freedom, in the same way, it was very difficult for Mrs. Wright to escape from the inescapable thread of marriage.

Freedom and beauty  

Further Explanation:  

Trifles is a one-act play that was written by Susan Glaspell and it was performed by the Province town players in Massachusetts in the year 1916 and in this play, writer Susan Glaspell played the role of Mrs. Hale. This play is frequently taught in American literature textbooks and Susan Glaspell wrote one more play just after this named as Ä jury of Her Peers” which had the same plot line and same characters.  

This play shows the example of the early feminist drama in which the two lead characters of the play are able to sympathize with Minnie who is playing the role of the victim’s wife and understands her ‘possible motive’ which leads them towards the evidence against her.  In the play, the wife is represented by a caged bird which is a ‘common symbol’ of freedom and beauty.
