Pheucticus melanocephalus (black-headed grosbeak)
A pair of Black-Headed Grosbeaks (Pheucticus melanocephalus) feed around the Piñon pines and Junipers in Sedona, Arizona, late in July. This is a song too sweet and too atypical to miss! The same individual is piping and singing, and I've "compressed" the time betweeen pipes and songs for the sake of file size. He often piped several times between songs. It's a large file, but it's worth the wait.
