Katelyn Davis Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 This was taken 9/26/21 in Chautauqua county NY. The tone sounds like a White-throated Sparrow and it is the only sparrow I can think of that would have that clear whistling song, but I've never heard one with this combination of notes before. Is it a variation? Ignore the Cardinal calling. 2021-09-26 0819 2-[AudioTrimmer.com].wav Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Connor Cochrane Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 It’s definitely a Zonotrichia sparrow. Probably just an odd White-throated, but it’s interesting how much the song sounds like Golden-crowned. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bird Nuts Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 In the fall you will hear strange sparrow songs. I believe it's the young birds practicing and the odd songs are called subsongs. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
