Spectrogram of the Grasshopper Sparrow song

I find it difficult to fully appreciate the complexity of the Grasshopper
Sparrow's song. To my ears, and they suffer from old age, the song sounds
like an ordinary insect buzz. Of course this is the reason it is caller a
grasshopper Sparrow.

Anyway I am posting a spectrogram if it's song and it sure doesn't look like
a simple buzz. Instead you see a very complex series of different notes,
many of which I cant even hear.

When I look at the spectrogram I get a better appreciate the effort this
little bird puts into it's song.

So for those of you that are interested here is the spectrogram:
