Very nice John,
I hear very distant Wilson's Snipe winnowing, Vesper Sparrow, Sage
Thrasher, Savannah Sparrow, and some type of female duck (not a
Mallard). Were you near a wetland? Then you've got excellent display
wing claps of the Short-eared owl followed by the screech of one and
response screech of another owl, finally, the hooting song on the
Short-eared owl, a song that has not been recorded very often.
