Re: [Maine-birds] Help with UNID Song from Upstate NY

Thanks Ian

Oriole seems to be the consensus. 

Kind regards

The main voice does sound like Baltimore Oriole. There are clearly Red-winged Blackbird and Mourning Dove in the background. I think I'm picking up Red-eyed Vireo and there might be a Warbling Vireo at the start, which could explain Merlin's waffling.

Good morning All

We were recently at a campsite in Waterloo, NY just outside of Seneca Falls.

Despite the rainy, dreary weather, this guy was singling all day long. You'll hear the song 8 times in this edited recording.

I looked long and hard but never saw the bird. Merlin vacillates between a Warbling Vireo and a Baltimore Oriole. 

Doesn't sound like the vireo to me but does have the same tonal quality as the Orioles I hear in Maine but not a song I've heard here.

Anyone familiar with the song and able to ID?

Thanks for the help.
