Has anyone heard Common Reed Bunting make such calls, or is it safe to assume that eBird's clip of the recording below is a mistake, as Robins can skulk in reeds as well, making a sound overlap possible?
eBird's clip is the last recording labelled 'Call' in the sequence (accessible by clicking the green 'Listen' button next to the species description):
the full original recording (which should also contain definite Reed Bunting calls):

slightly improved machine translation of the comment from Portuguese:
Initially heard the flight call, a "pssiiiuuu", and observed a bird with a silhouette of Emberiza sp and very wandering flight, typical of the species. Then it landed on the reed stalk and continued to vocalize. Call to insert. Unfortunately, it never left the reed stalk again in order to allow a photograph.
