this is phrase used to conceal the identity of someone who has told you something that was previously confidential or secret.

example:

  1. a little bird told me, and you might as well stop asking because i’m not going to tell you who my little bird was.
  2. i heard it from a little bird.
  3. your little bird is nothing but a tattle tale.
