It almost, but not quite, sounds like sounds the Cassin's Finch makes.
I wonder if it was a Purple Finch but I don't have enough familiarity
with that species to be sure.  Anyone who spends more time with Purple
Finch have an opinion?

I was at Huckleberry Regional Preserve in the Oakland hills on Sunday.
There was this bird singing in the manzanita, on the high side of the
trail. I'm guessing it's a migrant, but It sounds similar to a bird
that's here at other times of the year. When it flew off, it gave a soft

"whit..whit" call in flight. I only saw the silhouette.

It's the last file, Huckleberry manzanita bird.
