Media notes

NOTES: (Third Recordist: Michael Braun. Breeding Status: Unknown. Frequency of Sound: Sporadic. Cover Density: Medium.) This song was considered unworthy of making a cut. However, since it's clear, though faint, we saved it without indicating a cut number on the tape. It comes right after cut no. 8A. [This recording contains four songs, all apparently given by a bird in the background, many "eenk" Location Calls, and an unusual, ascending series not described in BNA account (0:46-0:48). Most of the location calls are quite soft, with many sounding like begging calls. Note that nothing in the second part of this recording was given by this species. Quality changed from 3 to 2-3 - CAM - 13 May 2005]. Response to playback: No response. Other Behaviors: Advertise. Habitat: Montane Grassland, Desert, Canyon, Rocky.
