Media notes

Multiple White-throated Sparrows calling excitedly in response to spishing and pygmy owl whistling - Song Sparrows and Dark-eyed Juncos also calling.

Three together in brushy area above and uphill of the White Cliff building. They (and juncos and Song Sparrows) all popped up in reaction to my pygmy-owl whistling and spishing - all three birds were visible at the same time.
