Jerry Friedman Posted May 10, 2020 Share Posted May 10, 2020 (edited) I amplified with Audacity (which is free and easy to use). https://clyp.it/nzlsmzmo Cassin's Finch? There aren't many songbird choices in Taos in March. Edited May 10, 2020 by Jerry Friedman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bird-Boys Posted May 11, 2020 Share Posted May 11, 2020 I don't think its fast enough for Cassin's Finch. Townsend's Solitaire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nivalis Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 I was wondering about a Cassin's finch, i did not see or hear any other solitaires in the area so I would be surprised if it was one, any other thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) I'll have to listen to it again and look through what birds live there, but I don't think it's a Solitare Edited May 12, 2020 by Connor Cochrane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nivalis Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 wondering about sagebrush sparrow, doesn't really sound perfect but kind of close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nivalis Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 also very rare but thinking about sage thrasher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 (edited) It does sound pretty good for Sagebrush Sparrow, are they in the area? Edit: They seem to be in the area, (it's in the high desert) I would say this is probably a Sagebrush Sparrow Edited May 12, 2020 by Connor Cochrane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nivalis Posted May 12, 2020 Author Share Posted May 12, 2020 I think so although not the most common bird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jerry Friedman Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 Sagebrush Sparrow certainly seems like a good possibility. They can show up in weird places in winter and migration, so why not a town? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted May 12, 2020 Share Posted May 12, 2020 There are about 3 records inside Taos, but a lot more just outside of the town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
