Observation details
Fantastic find by James. Singing, calling, and seen. Call is high-pitched, and song clearly had an upward inflection at the end, which is diagnostic for BITH. Also, the bird showed strong reddish tones and extensive yellow in the lower mandible. Visuals and call do not make a positive ID, but along with the song we have a slam dunk. Unfortunately the song was very faint (whisper song). Attached is the best recording I got. Best heard (and seen on spec) at 54 and 59 seconds. I’ll try to clean it up at some point. Photos when he popped up in the open for about a minute. US year #360!
