Nice recording -
I hear (at least): hermit thrush, yellow-rumped warbler, red-breasted
nuthatch, chipping sparrow, common raven, great horned owl, brown creeper,
western tanager, dark-eyed junco and sapsucker (species?)
the calls ending with a loud 'toc' are the raven - a higher pitched call
(possibly young) is given later. The drumming woodpecker has the distinctiv=
e
pattern of a sapsucker - not sure which species you have there.

I'm assuming I hear a Hermit Thrush, and in the background a Red
Breasted Nuthatch, and a few other birds I'm not certain of.
I am interested to hear what group members have to say about the
"tic-tok" call. And also what woodpecker is drumming?
