Thanks John, do your Towhees have the preceding calls like this too?

< higher notes could be a different species, possibly an immature
Swainson's thrush attempting the purr-whit call?>

There were some Swainson's present but these other "whistles" were quiet
lower on the spectrogram, I hear them early on in the season too, before
the fledglings have had time to flee, I'm still curious as to who the
hell he/she is, I believe it's in the Turdidae family though.

Hi Martyn;
The short harsh trills are a Spotted Towhee. There are lots of them here
on Salt Spring Island where I live. The higher notes could be a
different species, possibly an immature Swainson's thrush attempting the
purr-whit call?
