Media notes

I'm not sure if it was all the same individual, or if the call at the end came from another bird. If the same one, it flew across the block in between calls, which is quite possible. Also, the voice sounded different, but that could be due to the acoustics of the environment such as tall buildings vs open area.

Observation details

I heard them. Number uncertain.
