I'm with you Mark, I would like to hear a little longer recording, I am not
convinced about the Osprey.

Well, in this cut the calls are a lot slower & more drawn out but the
harsher notes (after the 'whiny whistle') are unlike anything I've heard an
osprey make. These calls do sound slightly less gray jay like than in the
original posting (when the calls started just after the second Song Sparrow
song ends).
Is there more of that call to assist in a determination?
