Latest sound recordings
	3427 (1 sounds) Stock Dove (Columba oenas [monotypic]) Huldue - Paloma Zurita Jægersborg Dyrehave, Sjælland, Denmark 2020-06-10 A rather common breeding bird in the park with the old oaks being an excellent habitat for it.
	3426 (1 Photos) (4 sounds) Little Bittern (Ixobrychus minutus [minutus (Little)]) Dværghejre - Avetorillo Común Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-10 Adult male. Hejresøen. Discovered by John Larsen this morning. Rather actively singing when I was there during the afternoon, but not very cooperative visually. Only seen briefly when flying from one spot to another. This song is the typical male song, indicating that it was very keen on finding a mate. Will be interesting to see if it is still there tomorrow after a whole day without a female response. Biggest rarity in my time on Amager, I think, which was also indicated by the large number of birders present during my stay. Excellent experience. Recordings, also: [1:48] Eurasian Blackbird, Common Chiffchaff, Common Cuckoo, Little Grebe, Eurasian Coot, Greater Whitethroat, Eurasian Reed Warbler. [0:29] Bearded Reedling, Eurasian Coot, Eurasian Reed Warbler. [0:51] Eurasian Coot, Eurasian Reed Warbler, Eurasian Moorhen, Red-necked Grebe. [0:27] Eurasian Coot, Eurasian Reed Warbler, White Wagtail, European Greenfinch. Rare
	3425 (1 sounds) Blyth's Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus dumetorum [monotypic]) Buskrørsanger Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-07 Along Ellevehøjvej in a stretch with Buckthorn more than willow bushes. Was discovered earlier today where it was more cooperating than when I visited. During 3 hours in the evening the vocalization in this recording was practically all it gave. It's not a very obvious documentation but the slow repeated dy dy dy sequences are typical of the species and would be rare with any of the other acrocephalus warblers. My first on Amager. Also: Eurasian Blackbird, Common Chaffinch, Greater Whitethroat, Tree Pipit, Common Cuckoo, Willow Warbler. Rare
	3424 (1 sounds) Common Chaffinch (Fringilla coelebs [coelebs by location]) Bogfinke - Pinzón Vulgar Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-06 Male singing. Also: Eurasian Blackbird, Eurasian Blackcap.
	3423 (1 sounds) Eurasian Coot (Fulica atra [atra]) Blishøne - Gallereta Común Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-07 Heard from a water-filled ditch late at night. First I thought it was an amphibian, but sounds more like a monotonous single call note from a coot.
	3422 (1 sounds) European Pied Flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca [monotypic]) Broget Fluesnapper - Papamoscas Cerrojillo Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-07 Song of the same male as 3412 and 3418.
	3421 (1 sounds) Marsh Warbler (Acrocephalus palustris [monotypic]) Kærsanger Royal Golf Club, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-08 Fast intense phrases typical of the species.
	3420 (1 sounds) Wood Warbler (Phylloscopus sibilatrix [monotypic]) Skovsanger - Mosquitero Silbador Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-07 Single call note used by several birds around me. Didn't see them, but could be a family communicating. Also: Eurasian Nuthatch.
	3419 (5 Photos) (4 sounds) River Warbler (Locustella fluviatilis [monotypic]) Flodsanger - Buscarla Fluvial Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-07 Unmistakable sound, and very characteristic too visually with the grayish tinted streaked breast and finely streaked throat and broadly banded undertail coverts. A large warbler preferring to sit obscured, but luckily came out here for a short while. Found it myself. Same spot as where it was seen many years ago in a lush clearing on the north side of the forest. A good year for the species in Denmark and expected on Amager too. Photo 4 uncropped. Also: [0:44], [0:23] Eurasian Blackbird. [0:43] [0:12] Eurasian Blackcap. Rare
	3418 (3 sounds) European Pied Flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca [hypoleuca by location]) Broget Fluesnapper - Papamoscas Cerrojillo Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-06 Male singing. Very likely same bird as 3412. Same spot. Also seen, though very elusive, moving away every time I tried to approach it for a photo. Recordings modified with noise reduction and amplification.
	3417 (1 sounds) Greenish Warbler (Phylloscopus trochiloides [viridanus]) Lundsanger - Mosquitero Verdoso Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-05 Active bird singing constantly along Ellevehøjvej in Pinseskoven. Stayed in the top the tall birches and only saw it briefly. Another bird, 3416, was present in Kongelunden and showed better. The song is of the typical type given by a viridanus bird. Also: Eurasian Wren, Eurasian Blackbird, Eurasian Blackcap, Common Redstart, Lesser Redpoll, Tree Pipit, Great Tit. [Recording has been modified by cutting out noisy irrelevant parts. The microphone was moved during recording, affecting the volume of the sound]. Rare
	3416 (9 Photos) (2 sounds) Greenish Warbler (Phylloscopus trochiloides [viridanus]) Lundsanger - Mosquitero Verdoso Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark 2020-06-05 Typical bird, greenish gray look overall, long broad eyebrow and faint single wing bar. Appearance extremely variable depending on light and angle, as photos show. Singing almost constantly as it is normal for newly arrived warblers. Two song types. The typical thin metallic descending twitter with a single starting note, and an up-and-down sequence resembling Great Tit. Another bird was present today in Pinseskoven, Vestamager. Normal time of year and more or less expected today after rain passed through the Copenhagen area during the night. Sound recordings also: [0:13]: Great Tit, Eurasian Blackbird, Common Chaffinch. [6:18]: Eurasian Blackbird, Eurasian Blackcap, Willow Warbler, Great Spotted Woodpecker, Common Chaffinch, Common Redshank. [Recording has been modified by cutting out noisy irrelevant parts. The microphone was moved during recording, affecting the volume of sound] Rare
	3412 (1 sounds) European Pied Flycatcher (Ficedula hypoleuca [hypoleuca by location]) Broget Fluesnapper - Papamoscas Cerrojillo Kongelunden, Amager, Denmark 2020-05-28 Adult male singing. A rather discrete song that could easily drown among the more dominant species in the forest. This bird was seen in the southeast department by a supposed breeding spot in mixed mature oak forest with dense understory. Very likely same bird in 3418. Call notes around 00:34 to 00:45. Also: Great Tit, Eurasian Blackbird, Common Chiffchaff, Common Chaffinch.
	3411 (1 sounds) Corn Crake (Crex crex) monotypic Crake Engsnarre Amager Fælled, Amager, Denmark 2020-05-21 Present since yesterday, discovered in the morning. When I arrived some 10 persons were standing in the middle of the field where the bird was supposed to be. I stayed on the path, 50 meters away, confident that the bird would be easy to hear from there as well. And I was rewarded, because shortly after it started to call closer to me than to the others (did they push it too much..?). I approached the sound along the path, and then just waited until it called again, and to my surprise it was much closer now having reached the edge of the path, and just some 5 meters from me. Very loud. I had the recorder running and as you can hear got a very good recording. While standing there I considered if I should try to get my camera in case the bird should decide to show itself. But in the same moment the bird came out and flew along the path away from me and landed some 40 meters away in the shadow of a group of large poplars. My first on Amager, and perhaps even my first seen - ever. Also: Eurasian Blackbird, Eurasian Blackcap.
	3407 (4 Photos) (1 sounds) Thrush Nightingale (Luscinia luscinia) monotypic Nightingale Nattergal Amager Fælled, Amager, Denmark 2020-05-09 The insignificantly looking bird with the great voice. Singing until summer solstice, but easiest to spot now before the foliage gets too green and the birds more discrete when brooding starts.
	3054 (1 sounds) Buff-collared Nightjar (Antrostomus ridgwayi ridgwayi) Halsbåndsnatravn - Tapacaminos Tucuchillo Coto La Condesa, Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2019-06-02 Bird heard behind my house both in the early morning, 05:24 and in the evening 21:12. This being first time ever in the one and a half year I've been living here. Could probably try to see it, but prefer to give it a break, expecting it to be outside its normal jurisdiction.
	2889 (2 sounds) Blue Ground Dove (Claravis pretiosa) monotypic Grådue - Tórtola Azul Tikal PN, Petén, Guatemala 2016-01-06 double huut call. Also. Rec 1: Green Jay, ?.

	2869 (2 sounds) Blue Mockingbird (Melanotis caerulescens) monotypic Blå Spottedrossel - Mulato Azul Reserva de la Chara Pinta (Tufted Jay reserve), Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-05-31 The master of mimicry, though it sounds more like it's own voice in these recordings. Likely same individual both recordings. Also. Rec 1: Russet Nightingale-Thrush. Rec 2: White-throated Thrush.
	2868 (1 sounds) Black Thrush (Turdus infuscatus) monotypic Mellemamerikansk Solsort - Mirlo Negro Camino a Tzontehuitz, San Cristóbal de Las Casas, Chiapas (Chp), Mexico 2017-04-21 Typical melodic song with repeated repertoire. Also: Cabani's Wren, White-tipped Dove
	2867 (2 sounds) Black Thrush (Turdus infuscatus) monotypic Mellemamerikansk Solsort - Mirlo Negro El Triunfo, Chiapas (Chp), Mexico 2017-04-19 Likely same individual both recordings. Repeated whistling, like a Song Thrush. Also. rec 1: Highland Guan, ?
	2866 (3 sounds) Black-polled Yellowthroat (Geothlypis speciosa) monotypic Sorthovedet Gulstrube - Mascarita del Lerma Lago de Pátzcuaro, Michoacán (Mic), Mexico 2018-10-06 Different individuals. Harsh call and the unstructured up-and-down warbling song. Also: rec 2: Marsh Wren, Red-winged Blackbird, Common Gallinule, Cassin's Kingbird. rec 3: Marsh Wren. Endemic
	2865 (1 sounds) Black-headed Siskin (Spinus notatus ?) Sortbrystet Sisken - Jilguerito Encapuchado Camino a Calaque, above Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-02-10 Male twitter.
	2864 (1 sounds) Black-headed Trogon (Trogon melanocephalus melanocephalus) Sorthovedet Trogon - Coa Cabeza Negra Tikal PN, Petén, Guatemala 2016-01-05 Pretty sure it is this species, though the song isn't full and complete. Also: ?
	2860 (1 sounds) Limpkin (Aramus guarauna dolosus) Riksetrane - Carrao Crooked Tree, Belize District, Belize 2018-12-06 Call. Unusual to me without any of the crane-like quality to it. Heard both at night and during the day. The recording is from mid-morning. Also: Common Tody-Flycatcher.
	2859 (3 sounds) Great Black Hawk (Buteogallus urubitinga ridgwayi) Stor Sortvåge - Aguililla Negra Mayor Crooked Tree, Belize District, Belize 2018-12-06 Juvenile. Calling and posing perfectly (camera broke down a few hours before). The long outdrawn call. At one point it sounded like it came from another direction, as if another bird was responding.
	2849 (1 sounds) Black-headed Grosbeak (Pheucticus melanocephalus melanocephalus) Sorthovedet Kernebider - Picogordo Tigrillo Bosque La Primavera, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2016-03-28 Song. Also: Broad-tailed Hummingbird, Mourning Dove.
	2848 (1 sounds) Bewick's Wren (Thryomanes bewickii mexicanus) Gråbrun Gærdesmutte - Saltapared Cola Larga Monte Albán, Oaxaca (Oax), Mexico 2018-04-12 The most typical song type, the trill preceded by single odd note.

	2842 (1 sounds) American Redstart (Setophaga ruticilla) monotypic Amerikansk Ildstjert - Pavito Migratorio Crooked Tree, Belize District, Belize 2018-12-06 The typical smacking call of a birding foraging through the foliage.
	2841 (1 sounds) Acorn Woodpecker (Melanerpes formicivorus albeolus) Agernspætte - Carpintero Bellotero Crooked Tree, Belize District, Belize 2018-12-06 Call of a single bird perched on a post close to ground.
	2836 (1 sounds) Banded Wren (Thryophilus pleurostictus oaxacae) Båndsmutte - Saltapared Barrado Huatulco, Oaxaca (Oax), Mexico 2018-07-15 Song. Reminds a lot of Sinaloa Wren, which is only found further north. Also reminds of the Nightingale!
	2835 (1 sounds) Banded Wren (Thryophilus pleurostictus oaxacae) Båndsmutte - Saltapared Barrado Huatulco, Oaxaca (Oax), Mexico 2018-07-13 Song. Reminds a lot of Sinaloa Wren, which is only found further north.
	2834 (1 sounds) Arizona Woodpecker (Dryobates arizonae fraterculus) Arizonaflagspætte - Carpintero de Arizona Camino a Calaque, above Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-02-10 Call. Male. The sharp spotted woodpecker call which also Ladder-backed has. However Arizona often sounds a bit more rusty.
	2832 (1 sounds) American Robin (Turdus migratorius migratorius (migratorius)) Vandredrossel - Mirlo Primavera Durango Highway, Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-06-01 Song.
	2831 (1 sounds) American Robin (Turdus migratorius migratorius (migratorius)) Vandredrossel - Mirlo Primavera Volcán Nevado de Colima, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-06-23 Song.
	2830 (1 sounds) American Robin (Turdus migratorius migratorius (migratorius)) Vandredrossel - Mirlo Primavera Durango Highway, Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-05-27 Song.
	2829 (19 Photos) (1 sounds) Gray-breasted Wood-Wren (Henicorhina leucophrys) monotypic Gråbrystet Skovsmutte - Saltapared Pecho Gris Volcán Nevado de Colima, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-08-29 Adult. Unmistakable when seen well. In this area it is only Happy Wren that looks alike, but it is bigger, and has a warmer and paler colored breast and a much longer tail. The species is a notorious skulker, and this bird only came out when I started to back play it's own call.
	2825 (14 Photos) (3 sounds) Colima Warbler (Leiothlypis crissalis) monotypic Colimasanger - Chipe de Colima El Terrero, Minatitlán, Colima (Col), Mexico 2018-11-08 Can't say anything about age or sex, but I can say, that this bird is a Lifer! Finally I managed to find this rare winter visitor, and so very appropriate that it happens in Colima, exactly! It was alone foraging low in the bushes in the semi-open understory, a short distance above the km 12 sign. It responded to playback of the call, but didn't seem to take much notice of it, as it continued foraging the next 10 minutes close by before it decided to move on. This was my first visit at the locality, but the fact that the forest consists of first class mature tall small-leaf oaks with a healthy and dense understory, something I don't think I've seen on the other side of the volcanoes in the same degree, makes me suspect the species prefers exactly this type As soon as I saw the bird, I knew it was something special that I hadn't seen before. But it took a while before the right species occurred to me. It is a big warbler, and the dark plumage makes it look bigger. It is very different from it's cousins Virginia's and Nashville, whereas the former always seems brightly gray white, with restricted yellow to the vent and the breast, and the latter generally looks overall yellowish. All field characters are seen in this set of photos, warm yellow undertail and ocher rump, dirty flanks, brownish back, strong eye-ring and liver red crown feathers. Plus the big size and the voice confirmation. The photos have been cropped, but are otherwise untouched, except for a few of them where I've lightened them slightly to have characters stand out better. But take a look at photo 14, which has not been post-processed, but was heavily over-exposed from the beginning. If someone showed me this photo alone, I'm pretty sure I would have called the bird a Virginia's, if anything, and never a Colima. So again again: Don't ever rely on single poor quality photos to make your decisions. Rare
	2768 (5 Photos) (1 sounds) Gray Flycatcher (Empidonax wrightii) monotypic Grå Empidonax - Papamoscas Bajacolita Volcán Nevado de Colima, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-09-30 When I saw it in the binoculars, I thought it looked like a Pewee, because it looked so longish and overall gray, something the normal empidonax's from the area don't show. It was strange, however, that a constant empidonax whit call was heard in direct of the bird, and there didn't seem to be other birds around, why I assume that it came from this bird.The proportions fit a Gray Flycatcher well, and I allow myself to believe I can see a well-marked black tip to the bill below, on photo 2, why I in all likewise will allow myself to count my first Gray Flycatcher in Jalisco!
	2720 (7 Photos) (1 sounds) Cinnamon-bellied Flowerpiercer (Diglossa baritula baritula) Brunbuget Blomsterborer - Picochueco Vientre Canela Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-08-19 Adult male. Unmistakable when seen well, with the combination of color and the hooked bill tip. It's a species I've had difficulties with. It was therefore a big surprise to find it here, in my local hills. It is known from the volcanoes, but I've never had much success with it there either. This bird sang, as you can hear, and chased another bird, which most likely was a female. The song reminds me of The European Serin - to have a memorable reference at hand.
	2690 (6 Photos) (1 sounds) Map Slaty Vireo (Vireo brevipennis) monotypic Mørk Vireo - Vireo Pizarra Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-07-05 A surprise to find a pair of this species on this side of Ciudad Guzmán. Sang spontaneously when I passed by along the road. Thick understory in pine-oak forest. Recording also: Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush. Endemic
	2581 (8 Photos) (1 sounds) Great Reed Warbler (Acrocephalus arundinaceus arundinaceus) Drosselrørsanger - Carricero Tordal Kalvebod Fælled, Amager, Denmark 2018-05-16 Adult. Rare or at least uncommon and practically unmistakable with the big size and in particular its coarse acrocephalus voice. Continues singing, but the question is if a mate will show up in time, or at all... Rare
	2569 (1 sounds) Cooper's Hawk (Accipiter cooperii) monotypic Gråkronet Duehøg - Gavilán de Cooper La Bufa, San Sebastián del Oeste, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-13 Heard calling spontaneously a few times close to the road bend with the blue signs. Tried to playback it, but it never showed itself.
	2563 (2 sounds) Northern Pygmy-Owl (Glaucidium gnoma gnoma) Troldspurveugle - Tecolote Serrano Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Surprised to hear this species away from the volcanoes, but habitat and altitude is perfectly fine for the species, so good it's here as well!
	2562 (1 sounds) Eared Poorwill (Nyctiphrynus mcleodii mcleodii) Mexicansk Poorwill - Tapacaminos Prío Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Two birds calling shortly at the same time, on opposite sides of the road. Great with an alternative to the volcanoes for this species.
	2561 (1 sounds) Stygian Owl (Asio stygius lambi) Flagermushornugle - Búho Cara Oscura Cerro arriba de Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Wasn't aware of this bird in the field, but only after hearing the recording of a calling Northern Pygmy-Owl. Could be something else, but it sounds exactly like a single hoot from a Stygian, so I take the chance and call it that. The habitat is very suited as well with tall pines and oaks.
	2560 (1 sounds) Pine Flycatcher (Empidonax affinis ?) Fyrreempidonax - Papamoscas Pinero Camino a Calaque, above Cd. Guzmán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2018-03-04 Saw several birds that made me doubt whether they were Pine or Hammond's. But this recording, to me, sounds like a Pine; the call not being as sharp toned as that of the Hammond. But admitting that I'm still not an expert on these differences, I could be wrong. If you think so, please let me know.
	2461 (8 Photos) (3 sounds) Elegant Quail (Callipepla douglasii douglasii) Rødtoppet Vagtel - Codorniz Cresta Dorada Mazatlán, Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-06-03 Male. Unmistakable in the area. Defended it's territory vigorously by running toward us when playing the voice. Apparently common in the area.
	2455 (7 Photos) (2 sounds) Aztec Thrush (Ridgwayia pinicola) monotypic Mexicodrossel - Mirlo Azteca Reserva de la Chara Pinta (Tufted Jay reserve), Sinaloa (Sin), Mexico 2017-06-01 Female. Likely a ung bird because of the mottled belly. Was calling heavily while we were there, as if it was protecting a nest site. Nick saw a male briefly close to this spot, but those were the only observations we made of the species.
	2215 (1 sounds) Buff-collared Nightjar (Antrostomus ridgwayi ridgwayi) Halsbåndsnatravn - Tapacaminos Tucuchillo Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2016-03-25 3 birds calling within a 100-meter triangle, and the only ones heard during a stretch of 1 km. Only two can be heard in this recording. The one much closer than the other.
	2211 (1 sounds) Bullock's Oriole (Icterus bullockii ?) Orangebrynet Trupial - Calandria Cejas Naranjas Parque Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-24 Call from foraging bird. More present.
	2208 (1 sounds) Aztec Rail (Rallus tenuirostris) monotypic Tyndnæbbet Klapperrikse - Rascón Azteca Presa La Vega, west of Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2016-02-11 Eeehh call repeated throughout the recording. The other individuals present only called with the more common clapper call. Endemic
	1915 (1 sounds) Yellow-rumped Warbler (Setophaga coronata auduboni) Myrtesanger - Chipe Rabadilla Amarilla Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Typical call. Reminds of the calls of some of the other warblers present here, such as: Wilson's, Orange-crowned and MacGillivray's. However it has a less sharp quality above it, and is rather characteristic once you catch the difference. The eastern birds, white-throated coronata have a sharper call than audubonis.
	1914 (1 sounds) White-tipped Dove (Leptotila verreauxi angelica) Hvidpandet Jorddue - Paloma Arroyera Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Typical almost suppressed call that you often hear. However the birds you don't see that often; mostly because it can be difficult to figure out where the sound comes from.
	1913 (1 sounds) Rufous-bellied Chachalaca (Ortalis wagleri) monotypic Rødbuget Chachalaca - Chachalaca Vientre Castaño Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Typical chachalaca calls in the background. Endemic
	1912 (1 sounds) West Mexican Chachalaca (Ortalis poliocephala) monotypic Sierra Madre-Chachalaca - Chachalaca Pálida Laguna la María, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Call. Endemic
	1911 (1 sounds) Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush (Catharus aurantiirostris clarus) Orangenæbbet Skovdrossel - Zorzal Pico Naranja Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Singing male. Sinaloa Wren in the background.
	1910 (1 sounds) Varied Bunting (Passerina versicolor dickeyae) Mangefarvet Finke - Colorín Morado Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-29 Characteristic call from excited juvenile. 3 young women were taking photos of themselves in front of the bird, so per definition I feel confident that it had to be a male!
	1909 (1 sounds) Thick-billed Kingbird (Tyrannus crassirostris pompalis) Tyknæbbet Kongetyran - Tirano Pico Grueso Lo de Marcos, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-10-12 Call. The eager and rather shrill chatter. Not sure how common this call is. Also Inca Dove.
	1908 (1 sounds) Squirrel Cuckoo (Piaya cayana mexicana) Egerngøg - Cuclillo Canelo Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Call. Classic call from this species. Reminds of the call of Ladder-backed Woodpecker,and sometimes you get cheated, but normally there is a more slow quality about the call from the cuckoo.
	1907 (1 sounds) Spotted Sandpiper (Actitis macularius) monotypic Plettet Mudderklire - Playero Alzacolita Presa Las Pintitas, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-21 Alarm call. Worried about my presence it stood still on a floating object constantly calling.
	1906 (1 sounds) Social Flycatcher (Myiozetetes similis hesperis) Rødkronet Gultyran - Luisito Común Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Call. Typical voice you hear from this species: ihr-ihr-ihr...
	1905 (1 sounds) Sinaloa Wren (Thryophilus sinaloa sinaloa) Sinaloasmutte - Saltapared Sinaloense Lo de Marcos, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-10-12 Song. Endemic
	1904 (1 sounds) Sinaloa Wren (Thryophilus sinaloa sinaloa) Sinaloasmutte - Saltapared Sinaloense Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Song. Typical phrase. In the field this species gives associations toward the European Thrush Nightingale. Endemic
	1903 (1 sounds) Sinaloa Wren (Thryophilus sinaloa sinaloa) Sinaloasmutte - Saltapared Sinaloense Laguna la María, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Call. Has a rather varied repertoire, and with various wrens in the area, it sometimes can be difficult to distinguish these by call. Think that both sounds on this recording belong to this species. Endemic
	1902 (1 sounds) Russet-crowned Motmot (Momotus mexicanus mexicanus) Mexicansk Motmot - Momoto Corona Canela Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Call. The typical subdued call you always hear from the species. In the background House Sparrow and Inca Dove.
	1901 (1 sounds) Rufous-capped Warbler (Basileuterus rufifrons dugesi) Brunkronet Tangarsanger - Chipe Gorra Canela Cerro el Colli - Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-01 Song. Bad recording and bird not seen.
	1900 (1 sounds) Red-crowned Ant-Tanager (Habia rubica rosea) Rødkronet Habia - Piranga Hormiguera Corona Roja Laguna la María, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Call from male, somewhat worried by our presence. Saw a young bird nearby which might have been the reason.
	1899 (1 sounds) Rufous-bellied Chachalaca (Ortalis wagleri) monotypic Rødbuget Chachalaca - Chachalaca Vientre Castaño Sierra Álica, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-09-18 Call. Somewhat different from the coarse crackling calls you normally hear from chachalacas. Endemic
	1898 (1 sounds) Painted Redstart (Myioborus pictus pictus) Hvidvinget Hvidstjert - Pavito Alas Blancas Bosque La Primavera, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-23 Song. Reminds of the song of Coal Tit from Europe.
	1897 (1 sounds) Orange-billed Nightingale-Thrush (Catharus aurantiirostris clarus) Orangenæbbet Skovdrossel - Zorzal Pico Naranja Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-29 Song. A rather anonymous series of short clear thrush-like notes, often repeated over longer periods.
	1896 (1 sounds) Northern Cardinal (Cardinalis cardinalis ?) Rød Kardinal - Cardenal Rojo Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Song. A calm serie of up-and-down notes.
	1895 (1 sounds) Nashville Warbler (Leiothlypis ruficapilla ?) Nashvillesanger - Chipe Cabeza Gris Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-07 Call and toward the end a song phrase. Not sure whether song here in the winter quarters is an act of territorialism or perhaps young birds practicing.
	1894 (2 sounds) Nashville Warbler (Leiothlypis ruficapilla ?) Nashvillesanger - Chipe Cabeza Gris Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-07 Call. Sharp characteristic call. The species is less common than Yellow-rumped Warbler in the park, but still it is my impression that it doesn't use to call as frequently as YRW.
	1893 (1 sounds) MacGillivray's Warbler (Geothlypis tolmiei) monotypic Gråhovedet Sanger - Chipe Lores Negros Lo de Marcos, Nayarit (Nay), Mexico 2015-10-12 Calling from low above the ground in brushy habitat, as they normally do.
	1892 (1 sounds) Louisiana Waterthrush (Parkesia motacilla) monotypic Sydlig Vanddrossel - Chipe Arroyero Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-29 Calling.
	1891 (1 sounds) Louisiana Waterthrush (Parkesia motacilla) monotypic Sydlig Vanddrossel - Chipe Arroyero Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Calling bird. Only heard, but likely the same bird as 1892 from August. Northern Waterthrush has tendencies toward a sharper call.
	1890 (1 sounds) Lilac-crowned Parrot (Amazona finschi) monotypic Lillakronet Amazone - Loro Corona Lila Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-07-25 Contact call while foraging in tall eucalyptus trees.
	1889 (1 sounds) House Wren (Troglodytes aedon aedon (Northern)) Husgærdesmutte - Saltapared Común Presa Las Pintitas, Gdl, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-21 Alarm call caused by my presence. However, seemed rather unaffected at the same time, staying in the same spot, allowing for a few pictures, as seen.
	1888 (1 sounds) Happy Wren (Pheugopedius felix pallidus) Felixsmutte - Saltapared Feliz Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Typical song phrase. The chip-call in the foreground is a Varied Bunting and in the background the sound of a West Mexican Chachalaca. Much less common than Sinaloa Wren at this locality. Endemic
	1887 (1 sounds) Happy Wren (Pheugopedius felix pallidus) Felixsmutte - Saltapared Feliz Barranca de Huentitán, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-08-04 Call. As the sound of sweeping across the teeth of a metal comb. Normally it is Spot-breasted Wren that is associated with this call, but Happy also has one sounding in that direction. Endemic
	1886 (1 sounds) Hammond's Flycatcher (Empidonax hammondii) monotypic Granempidonax - Papamoscas de Hammond Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-07 Typical call, sharper than the whip call heard from many of the other empidonax species.
	1885 (1 sounds) Golden Vireo (Vireo hypochryseus hypochryseus) Gylden Vireo - Vireo Amarillo Laguna la María, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Song. Rather monotonous but characteristic voice.
	1884 (1 sounds) Fan-tailed Warbler (Basileuterus lachrymosus) monotypic Viftehalesanger - Pavito de Rocas Laguna la María, Colima (Col), Mexico 2015-08-09 Calling. The sharp drawn out sound that reminds somewhat of a thrush calling, just stronger.
	1883 (1 sounds) Eurasian Tree Sparrow (Passer montanus montanus) Skovspurv - Gorrión Molinero Vinkelhuse (Tårnby), Amager, Denmark 2015-06-27 Calling birds from the local balcony-population. Normally has a sharper call than House Sparrow. In the background Eurasian Blackbird.
	1882 (1 sounds) Eurasian Blackbird (Turdus merula merula) Solsort - Mirlo Común Vinkelhuse (Tårnby), Amager, Denmark 2015-06-27 Song during the day as you hear it constantly from this charismatic thrush - the essence of a Danish summer. In the foreground Eurasian Tree Sparrow.
	1881 (1 sounds) Cordilleran Flycatcher (Empidonax occidentalis ?) Cordilleraempidonax - Papamoscas Amarillo Barranqueño Parque Los Colomos, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-22 Characteristic call shared by both Pacific-slope and Cordilleran Flycatchers. The two are difficult to distinguish in the field, why the geography often dictates the id..!
	1880 (1 sounds) Cassin's Vireo (Vireo cassinii cassinii) Grå Brillevireo - Vireo de Cassin Parque Metropolitano, Guadalajara, Jalisco (Jal), Mexico 2015-10-03 Territorial song.
