Ves Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 (edited) This was heard in Southcentral Kansas earlier today. We could not spot the bird but only heard him sing in this tune. He repeated this song a few times then went silent. The habitat was a brushy area by a stream with lots of thickets and trees near the road. The person I was birding with seemed pretty confident that this was an Eastern Towhee call but not 100%, and as this would be a lifer for me I thought I would ask here for confirmation. Thanks in advance!

The Bird Nuts Posted December 20, 2018 Share Posted December 20, 2018 (edited) Pretty sure that's a Song Sparrow. Edited December 20, 2018 by The Bird Nuts 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
