The Black Kites here in Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR that usually frequent the sky above the waterfront promenade in the semi-rural areas of Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR also sound very much like the Red-tailed Hawk. In Singapore 🇸🇬, the common House Crow 🐦⬛ and the Large-billed Crow both sound the same making sound like “KYAK-KYAK”.
Great video and list guys. Hard to get all the favorites in a list of only 10. I love the Eastern Wood-Pewee and was fortunate to hear one this afternoon.
Good morning 🌅 to you from Hong Kong 🇭🇰 SAR. Both the Spotted Dove and the Green Emerald Dove which I have observed and heard have the same bird call / song.
I'm in the Minneapolis area and every spring I get so happy the first time I hear white-throated sparrows. I always loved their song. Also hard not to love the song of our state bird, the loon. That truly is an iconic call.
We had a loon stop at a local park/lake in northwest indiana once, and when my dad and i heard it, my dad thought there was no way it could be a bird. Until i looked up the loon call since i had been suspecting the bird of possibly being one. Felt bizarre seeing and hearing one where we lived, but we heard and saw many more once we took a trip to the upper peninsula of Michigan. Absolutely haunting.
Blue Jays loud "jeer" noise is common and distinct. I don't seem to hear their "squeaky gate" noise as much here as I do at a relative's house in a more rural location. The Black Capped Chickadee namesake noise and "fee-bee" is also loud and distinctive.
My favourite is still our European blackbird. They are so musical. My then 3 year old grandson once asked me why we say birds are singing when most just squeek. I listened. And he was right. Plus whenever I was trying to get to sleep after a night shift I learned to hate the local pigeons coo cooing on the house rooves.😂
I love listening to the spooky hooting of the GHO. The Barred Owl is another owl that's always a treat to listen to. A few true song birds I love listening to include Song Sparrow, Eastern Towhee, Yellow Warbler, House Wren, Common Yellowthroat, Northern Mockingbird, Carolina Wren, and Tufted Titmouse. I find the song of the Song Sparrow to be such a touching song if the male sings the full version. Seeing and hearing flocks of Red-Winged Blackbirds in February and March here in CT is always a sign that we're on our way to warmer temperatures, fewer frosty nights, and longer daylight. I'm used to hearing American Robins singing before the morning twilight. A noisy shorebird I enjoy listening to is the Killdeer. They're another bird that marks fewer frosty nights and longer daylight. One woodpecker that I love listening to is the Northern Flicker. Its drumming is amazing and hearing the male make his loud series of calls after drumming is a sign that sweatshirt weather is gone and t-shirt weather has arrived.
Great little list! Still think Red Tailed Hawk is the single bird call that will ALWAYS grab my attention and get me excited to locate the hawk that's hollering. I can't describe how pleased it makes me to have hawks that at least hunt in my neighborhood (if they're nesting here I'm not sure where). MORE hawks this year than before, too!
I live in Southern California and a few of my favorites are the Northern Mockingbird, the red shouldered hawk, the spotted towhee, the California scrub jay and the oh so common house finch!!
Growing up, I heard Mourning Doves quite often. We lived in rural Eastern Washington near the border with Idaho. Now when I visit I hear only Collard Doves (an invasive species from Europe). I haven't heard or seen Mourning Doves in years. I'm quite upset about it.
They can kind of sound like anything you want. I think at some point someone decided them based loosely on syllables and tones. You can sort of twist it to be anything or nothing 🤷🏽♂️
I've always lived near House Finches and do like their songs in a similar way!
The Wood Thrush is my all-time favorite bird call.
Chickadees are pretty cool too. I try to mimic and can sometimes get a couple extra dee's out of them.
Love it
I would put the Northern Cardinal on this list.

@@DustinHaning for sure!
Great video. Has several of my favourites: Red-winged Blackbird, American Robin, American Crow. Thanks very much.

Mourning dove - so peaceful!
Red tailed hawk - GOATed screech
The Northern Cardinal is on my top 10 list. Just saying 😌.

Haunting is certainly the best word for it
LOVED this. ❤❤❤
thank you
I have memories attached to all these bird words.

The Black Capped Chickadee namesake noise and "fee-bee" is also loud and distinctive.
Catbirds and Orioles are my rwo favorites.

Great choices. Mockingbird could be added.
The sound of the common loon is also used a lot in movies and TV shows...
@@HocusPocusAlimagocus yeah! It’s so goofy but it is quite haunting so I get why they use it
So true. I laugh when watching TV & I hear the tremolo of a loon calling
from within a large metropolis with nary a body of water anywhere near.

Must mean there’s a good supply of prey!
The yellow-headed blackbird's song sounds almost like a rusty farm gate opening.
Sandhill crane’s call is the most distinctive.
@@woodsonjane it is very distinctive!

Totally triggering childhood memories... loons ya got me.
I am surprised the Swainson's Thrush did not make this list
Birds are the 🐝 bees knees
Geese deserve a honorable mention

They’re still very common in a lot of parts in the country! They also are heard most often in spring
Personally, I'm a fan of the Chickadee-dee song.
👍👍👍
❤
Northern mockingbird
There are three I would add, the Blue Jay, Cardinal and Chickadee.

I love bird sounds, but am I the only one who can never really hears the words like wip-poor-will, or cheer up-cheer up?? Is this an autistic thing?

I think Cardinals sound like a car alarm. And I hear Robyn's call as " laughing "
