One burst of distinctive bubbly calls. Really attrocious recording, but for additional documentation of this same individual (later the same day), see checklist https://ebird.org/checklist/S156505180
Observation details
First thing in the morning we heard several short bursts of distinctive bubbling trills that sounds like nothing except House and Carolina (which is louder/stronger) Wrens. We walked over, Barb “pished” a soft chit sound, and a small mouse sized brown bird flew up out of some brush and into another dense patch. We waited a while and then began very softly playing Sibley’s HOWR “Chit Chit” call. From further upslope came back exactly matching dry chit-chit calls, more similar to a Marsh Wren than any calls I am familiar with of Bewick’s, Rock, Canyon Wren. We then played the bubbly trilling call and eventually got responses from even further upslope: chits, bubbly trills, and scold calls than are almost more gnatcatcher like than BEWR-like. See the following same-day checklist for much better recordings of this bird: https://ebird.org/checklist/S156505180.
