Lincoln’s Sparrow seen, this call sounds to me ~ exactly like the Sedge Wren’s call ?? : compare both recordings on this checklist
Observation details
V arrived as I was making recording of call notes I couldn’t ID from tree hedge , wondering if might be Sedge Wren? but Lincoln’s Sparrow popped out, V and I both saw it well : later, Sedge Wren making calls that sounded “just like” these LISP calls : I made recordings of both birds seen, so will be interesting how sonographs compare ? When D arrived and saw us recording the LISP calls, he asked, “Isn’t that the Sedge Wren? because that is what it sounded like yesterday,” and when Sedge Wren later seen doing calls like this, I couldn’t at all tell them apart from the LISP we had heard , unless also adding in fart calls or ratchety. Update: looking at sonographs, these calls look nearly identical, of LISP and SEWR. The graph shows exactly, may be exactly, the same call ... except LISP calls it twice as fast. *** I found this prev record of mine from this fall where I also made a recording of a seen LISP, just to have an additional confirmation that they can do this, and this sonograph also matches today’s LISP and Sedge Wren : https://ebird.org/view/checklist/S48965581
