Sound Moment · Shrubby Edge Chorus with Oriole, Yellowthroat, and Blue-winged Warbler

Baltimore Oriole caroling under a Blue-winged Warbler buzz

A Baltimore Oriole's rich, liquid caroling rolls through the foreground while a high, buzzy Blue-winged Warbler bee-buzz cuts in over the top, the two voices briefly stacking.

  1. A Baltimore Oriole floats rich, liquid whistled phrases from the background, warm and flute-like through the leaves.
  2. A Red-bellied Woodpecker cuts in with a rolling, burry churr, like a tiny motor briefly catching, just under the oriole.
  3. A Blue-winged Warbler cuts through with its buzzy bee-buzz, a thin inhaled note then a lower, rougher buzz, sounding more insect than bird.
  4. A Common Yellowthroat takes the foreground with a rolling, bouncing witchity-witchity, the closest, loudest voice.
  5. A Baltimore Oriole's rich, liquid caroling rolls through the foreground while a high, buzzy Blue-winged Warbler bee-buzz cuts in over the top, the two voices briefly stacking.
