Observation details
This American tree sparrow was about 15 feet high in a tree singing. There are frogs adding steady background noise, a dog barking, plus multiple other bird sounds (house sparrow, Canada geese, song sparrow, red-winged blackbird, perhaps a junco). The tree sparrow starts out with a soft repeated two syllable ratcheting chip before breaking into it's musical song.
