Caption

This song is almost never heard, so recording this sample was a treat! It was sung from very high places on 3/10/99 in the early afternoon - as the bird sat atop a building, then on high brush and trees in the area. He was answered in like fashion by another about * mile away. Although there are two quick examples of the song in this file, they were actually sung about a minute apart
