Birdsong - Northern Italy (1 Viewer)

Hello everyone,
I need urgent help to identify a birdsong I recorded. I did not see the bird, however, I was recording right before dusk. BirdNET has no clue. I will be super thankful to whoever helps me.

Serin maybe?

Serin maybe?

Thank you for your help! However I don't think it sounds as piercing and chaotic as a usual serin

I didn’t mean the song, just the call. (It’s just a guess though)

XC632527 European Serin (Serinus serinus)

Like the low trills on this duet/flock

XC166745 European Serin (Serinus serinus)

Rare type call of a pair. ¿Could be a reaction to Chloris Chloris? Near night. Urban park with much great trees but a bit bush. Llamadas de una pareja de verdecillos casi de noche. ¿Podría ser tal vez esta llamada atípica una reacción de alarma a causa del verderón que canta a su lado? Parque...

If we are talking about the lower, fluty song rather than the higher pitched trilling, it sounds rather Blackcap like. But perhaps another Sylvia warbler could also fit the bill. It certainly is a very short snatch.

might be a robin. that recording is a bit too short.

Difficult for me too. Was this part of a longer song or just a short single call? When I first heard it, my gut feeling was "cut out phrase of Songtrush-song, especially with the short melody-tone at the beginning, easily missed here"
If this is indeed just a very short snatch of a longer song, Mistle Trush or Blackbird has to be considered, or a Blackbird, I agree with pianoman. But Song thrush is the best fit.
If this a single call, then my best guess is: if you dont know, what it is, its a ..... . Yes, than I think it might be a Great Tit imitating a finch call. They can do this very good, but many times you hear, that something is not right. And I get this feeling here, too.

Conclusion? Is this recording just a short snatch of a longer song?

Thank you very much. This is a clip from a longer recording, where the bird only makes this sounds. It does not sing anything before or after.

the bird only makes this sounds

Even if you think all the rest of your longer recording is the same and would add nothing, I'm pretty sure that in fact it would be very useful to hear the whole thing. Can you post it?
