Media notes
NOTES: This bird was not clearly identified as to sex or species. Its small size and hint of throat stripes are the basis for believing it to be a male Calliope. [I suspect this bird was identified correctly based on the locality and the calls. The sounds here represent primarily soft Chip Notes, but there is also some wing whirr. Quality added (2, 2-1 - the series of calls at 0:17-0:27 are quite good) - CAM - 2 May 2005]. Other Behaviors: Perform Visual Display. Habitat: Forest, Evergreen Forest, Coniferous Forest, Deciduous Forest.
