Observation details
Both seen right by each other, and at times in the same woodpile right around 33.841480,-112.284309. As usual with this species, detected by double call notes. The quality of the call was reminiscent of Song Sparrow, unlike the Wilson's Warbler-like calls of Pacific Wren. When using playback to attempt documentation, a Winter Wren flew in (tiny Wren with stubby tail, white supercillum, rufous tail and back area to contrast with light, cold tones throughout throat and front). While observing this bird, I thought it was calling but it didn't seem quite right, and the calls were coming from further away (plus this bird wasn't moving its bill at all to go along with the vocals), and then I realized there was a second Winter Wren. This second bird was real vocal while the one who came to investigate my playback didn't vocalize nearly as much, and never did while I was looking at it. I had a quick view of the second bird, an obvious wiwr/pawr but the Song Sparrow tones matched WIWR
