Observation details

Heard singing spontaneously without playback. Located a close bird with the thermal! Incredible! Very different appearance from TRSO, lacking the vertical streaking and instead having soft horizontal barring. Song is a short high-pitched hollow whistle with slight trill at the intro. Photos and recording.
