Title: Video Footage at Happy Valley
Post by: Rotarran on June 03, 2014, 08:52:25 PM

I shot a video while at Happy Valley Forest on Sunday because there was this call that I kept hearing but wasn't able to determine what it was.  I'm still very noobish at the bird calls and need some help.  

The call can be heard 3 times in the video.  Once at 7 seconds, once at 20 seconds and once more at 36 seconds.  It's a 3 syllable call with the first part being longer and drawn out and then finishing quickly with the last 2 syllables.  It kinda sounds like "innnnnnnnnnnnnnn a bit".  Thanks for your help....I'm sure it's actually a very common bird call.

Sounds very much like a Hooded Warbler to me.

Black-throated Green Warbler.

Hi Elias,

I would have to agree with a Black-throated Green Warbler.

You guys are probably right, bird sounds are difficult for me...

Yeah, a Black-throated Green. Hooded has a lower, richer, less buzzy sound with a different pattern.
