Mystery Warbler Song - Michigan (1 Viewer)

Rapala

Well-known member
This bird was recorded singing earlier this morning in an area of young deciduous forest. The trill heard at 1, 8, and 16 seconds has qualities similar to Orange-Crowned Warbler, but I have only heard them sing with a downward inflection at the end of the trill. In this recording, the pitch rises towards the end of the song. Is this an Orange-Crowned Warbler or something else?

EDIT: I have an second recording of a separate bird. I believe it is an alternate song, but can Eastern Towhee be confirmed?

Thanks for the help!

I think the second recording might be a Lincoln’s sparrow. My first thought on the warbler was an orange crowned but agree with it not sounding exactly right
