הערות
"Tik" calls only (barely audible, Gila Woodpecker in background towards end). Poor quality recording. Made with "Voice Memos" iPhone app. In playback, the "tik" sounds 'thinner' and possibly higher than it did in life (the latter perhaps due to loss of 'richness' that results in the 'thin' quality).
פרטי השורה
In the cottonwood grove near the upper (western) boat launch. Seen briefly on the ground and in low flight; called repeatedly for several minutes and then fell silent (I didn't hear anything like it during the day before, nor during my visits in October). Obviously a thrasher with short-ish (as compared to large-billed western thrashers), fairly thick-based, slightly decurved, but pointed bill. Bright rusty red-brown crown, nape, back, wings, and upper tail. As it banked in flight, the outer tips of the tail appeared paler. Two wing "bars," which were more like 2 lines of whitish spots. Heavily spotted undersides, black spots on pale background. I don't think the face was particularly gray, but the briefness of my observation makes it tough to say for sure -- it contrasted with the rusty red elsewhere on the head though. For the time it was vocal, the bird repeatedly gave a call that was very much like a Fox Sparrow, a loud, sharp, high-pitched and 'smacky' "tik." It also on occasion gave a descending whistle-like call that sounded reminiscent of an Osprey, twice with a second upward note afterwards.
