[Maine-birds] Chickadee Song

Does the Black Capped Chickadee have both a call and a song? Is the slightly buzzing chickadee-dee-dee sound their call and the song actually a hi-low whistle. I kept hearing the whistle in the trees and wondered if it was a Phoebe, because all I ever heard from the Chickadees was the call. But one day one landed on the railing near me and gave the song instead--and it blew me away! I am still wondering if I heard it right.

Anyone?
