ajaxbirds Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Hi folks - I hope this is OK : I have an audio file but no picture. I've been trying to figure out what I heard. This was in June in Ontario Canada. In my limited searching, it seems a little close to both a Mockingbird and a Brown Thrasher. Any thoughts ?

Creeker Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 Not a mockingbird. Sounds thrasher like to me, but I've never heard a Brown before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lonestranger Posted November 15, 2018 Share Posted November 15, 2018 I'm far from being good at birding by ear, but if I heard this in my backyard I'd be looking up in the tree tops or on the power lines for a brown thrasher. I wouldn't be surprised if I saw something else making that sound though....Just so you know, I'm no better at 'Name that Tune' kind of games than I am at IDing birds by sound...LOL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They may not call from there but that's where they feed, actively foraging through the leaves and other debris. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
