Hello,

I posted here a few months back, with a recording of me imitating the bird call (poorly) and now I am back with an actual recording. This bird arrives here in Early April and stays until very early fall. I think it pretty much stays in the wooded areas up in the trees. This call has been haunting me and I have listened to hundreds of bird calls and cannot figure this guy out, please help!

My first impression is an Eastern Towhee but that little bit at the end is a bit confusing. However, they do have quite a varied repertoire so perhaps that's a local or individual quirk.

Agreed. Sounds very much like the Towhees we hear here.

Eastern Towhee would be my first guess as well...."Drink your teaaaaaa" lol (I love the words to bird songs)

But it does have a distinct area dialect.
