Observation details

A continuing bird first found by other birders on 12/8 and I'd primarily by voice. It repeatedly gave a double "chup"call note which was lower pitched and less sharp than a Pacific Wren and somewhat similar in tone to a Song Sparrow. It had a more district light supercilium, a lighter throat and was overall less rusty than a Pacific Wren. The biggest difference was the call, which could at times be compared to a Pacific Wren which was periodically there at the same time. The call of the Pacific Wren was more like a Wilson's Warbler call. The Winter wren moved about on the ground and infrequently on low branches. It moved about almost like a mouse. It was totally unresponsive to pushing and recordings of its call, unlike most Pacific Wrens.
