Hey

The Correct Answer(S) Is - A. Fountain

The words the author uses (including the actual word 'fountain') represent how bubbly and lively the bobolinks are. The words 'gushing' and 'gurgling' are sounds a fountain makes, and when the author says the birds are 'pouring forth floods of sweet notes' it is like the way a fountain pours out water.
HOPE THIS HELPS!!!
