What's your favorite bird song? (1 Viewer)

[JoeGBirder]

Some bird songs are beautiful, some are rather not. Some tend to make our ears bleed... (cough cough, European Starling) but there's usually one we love to hear. I really love the Zapata Wren. I've never heard it in person, but heard recordings. Give it a listen, it's so subtly calming. What are all of yours?

Carolina Wren is my fav.

 

[gratography]

Hermit Thrush, but I recently recorded a male Black-headed Grosbeak, and it sings up a storm

I love the soft gentleness of bullfinches and can admire the virtuoso verocity of icterine and marsh warblers. Of course blackbird is a beautiful singer and welcome morning herald.

 

[foresttwitcher]

European Robin or Skylark.

 

[davercox]

Woodlark for me.

Wood Thrush, it sounds so otherworldly, like a sound too beautiful for earth's atmosphere. Baltimore Oriole is also very beautiful. American Goldfinch is not so much beautiful, as very interesting to listen to.

there are so many whose singing I find really beautiful.
