Hi Birders,
I heard a BLACK-THROATED GRAY WARBLER singing its distinctive buzzy song
this morning while walking the dog. Last night, while enjoying the
stars, I heard a distant NORTHERN SAW-WHET OWL and some interesting
flight calls I think were ORANGE-CROWNED WARBLERS. There was one
singleton and then it sounded like a group of three or so passing fairly
low overhead. The calls sounded rather like one part of a Dark-eyed
Junco twitter call. I guess they could have been this species as well,
but I'm more used to hearing the whole twitter, not just snippets of
it. Does anyone know of a good resource for western night migration calls?
Good Birding and thanks in advance for any info!
Karl
