Media notes

subsong? phrases vary but his signature phrase seems to be 2-3 overslurs followed by 1-2 abbreviated conclusion notes with an upward inflection

Observation details

continuing - first saw him on feeder after a 35 minute wait, he then momentarily fed on ~2ft. "lipstick sage" salvia beside the porch to the north of feeder, then spent awhile in front yard maple tree where he sang sparingly, then FINALLY parked on his little tree next to feeder right when we needed to leave of course thanks to anyone who took Eric's swell advice to show our birder gratitude by donating to homeowner Jennifer Munson's non-profit that locally spays and neuters our overpopulated cats which saves the lives of many birds

Additional species

  • House Sparrow Passer domesticus
