I wish I could hear a bit more of the file too. This song is not th=
e primary song of *any* of the possibilities. Any of the possibilities does=
sing at this time, even if the Bewick's sings less often. It could be a yo=
ung bird, which muddies the water even more. My 90% rating of Bewick's is b=
ased on the wren-like delicacy (compared to Song Sparrow), and the enormous=
variation in Bewick's calls compared to any of the others.
This is why I have only counted one life bird by sound. It can be d=
one, but in birds like this where there are many songs and even imitations =
going on, I gotta see it to count it.
