Brett H Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 Hello all, I heard the bird in the attached recordings this morning in coastal New Hampshire. It was very windy, so they’re not the best recordings. But you can hear the finch-like song pretty clearly. Any idea what it might be? Thanks!

meghann Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 If there were reeds nearby, I'd say Marsh Wren. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s a good thought, but this was on a rocky beach among thick patches of goldenrod and ragweed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see them frequently in the dead of winter, but I can’t remember hearing one sing. Thanks for the help! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meghann Posted October 17, 2021 Share Posted October 17, 2021 And the first time I heard a Horned Lark sing I said "That sounds like a Marsh Wren!" ? 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
