      Same with the house finches in Colorado--changing their song each time. They're funny, they get louder as their song goes along. It always seems to me they must be out of breath by the end of it.

    I always associate the mourning dove’s call with awkwardness. When I was a kid whenever we played outside with other kids if something happened that resulted in an awkward silence such as someone saying something mean, breaking something, etc almost on cue during the middle of the silence a mourning dove call would happen.

    Although the Mourning Dove is labeled as the "most nostalgic" bird in the U.S., in my opinion, I think it's the American Robin for me. I've lived in Central New York my whole entire life and I always heard the American Robin in the morning especially when getting ready for school and waiting for the bus. It's such a bittersweet sound and feeling for me.

I literally heard it yesterday, but knew it wasn't an owl as I'm a bird guy and just KNEW no owl sounded like this, and wouldn't be around in thr sunny noon here in Southern California near humans. I tried to find it but couldn't until I eventually did. Was surprised it was a pigeon. I really like it. It's haunting yet also empowering and spiritual, moreso than the loon or the crow

    Southeastern Wisconsin born & raised, and one of my favorite things to do in Spring & Summer is have my morning coffee on my patio, listening to the birds sing around me. There is one particular call that I always associate with ponds and small bodies of water, and I have no idea what bird it is, but I love the call! It sounds more like a warbling, and I'm guessing its a finch or chickadee. I hear it a lot when I hike the Kettle Morraine, but I love the sound! Such a summer sound for me! Great video!! Thanks for posting!!
    Edit: a little more searching and the bird song I'm thinking of is that of a red winged blackbird!! My all time favorite summer sound!

      I used one named Merlin. One day I recorded for just a couple of minutes and it told me I had 14 different bird songs. But I knew there was a mockingbird singing, so I figure it was a robin, a sparrow, a chickadee, and the rest were that mockingbird.

    I work at a ski resort and was running a small little ski-in place that was outdoors. After I would get everything setup I would have a good hour 1/2 to just sit quietly in the middle of the woods and listen. The chickadee was the only call i could get down but they would talk to me. Plenty of magpies and kings raven. Thank you for the great video!

    I don't have a good ear for memorizing songs so recognizing different bird calls is hard. I have heard almost all of these in my area though. PS I watch a mockingbird on a telephone pole do its songs, hop into the air & hover for a few seconds in place then fly in a back loop, land in same spot, resume singing then repeat the maneuver. Fascinating. To watch!

    After over 15 years of searching for a bird I was able to find it with your video. The White throated sparrow.
    I used to hear it outside my window in the spring when I was in 6th grade and then I moved. (I’m 30 now)
    After that I would hear it randomly at least 3 times since then. Today I heard it again and started watching videos (I’ve done a search on RUclips before with no luck) but finally !!! You helped me discover this magical bird 😍

Finally got a glimpse of it though it blended in real well. It was the most melodic song I've heard from a songbird and never did figure out which one it was. Nice video 👍

    What a great video. We had to memorize 100 bird calls for my Jr. High School science class. That was way too long ago. So much fun to listen to your description. I heard a new bird call this year in the middle of the night, so I figured it must have been an owl. Turned out to be a long eared owl. It has kept me awake outside my bedroom window many nights. We have barred owls and great horned. I live in PA on 2 acres with a lot of woods and a very diverse ecosystem with lots of insects and critters I've never seen before living on this property. It's so wonderful!

    omg the chickadee call brought me right back to Alberta, where I grew up. So many chickadees there, but I've lived in Toronto for 3.5 years now and only just realized that I don't hear those chickadee calls here. They're my favorite little birds, this made me miss them so much! I especially love the call that starts on a higher note and then goes down a note. It's the sound of spring and summer to me.

    I love birds and hope I can have a hobby or job at some point with them, I’ve always loved looking outside our windows (I live on a mountain so there’s lots of wildlife here) and seeing new birds I don’t recognize, my family has every common species identification in Alabama so whenever we see some animal we go look through the books (personally I think it’s more fun and easier to flip through the books so you don’t have to scramble to describe what you saw) I remember in 2020 is when I grew to love observing and learning out birds, there was a bird that is a bit rare to my knowledge here and it was hard to find I had to look it up but it was so beautiful it was a deep sapphire blue, I somehow found it online! I can’t remember the exact name but I know it was a type of Jackal maybe blue jackal or something and a few days later I saw it again and pointed it out to my mom, I felt so happy to have identified a bird and find a somewhat rare bird in my area!
    Edit: I CANT find this birds name again!! I think it was blue and black and it was NOT a grackle, starling, bluebird, or a blue Jay it may have been an indigo bunting but I swear the name was different I live in Alabama so please any bird experts help me rediscover this beautiful bird!!
    Edit: Guys I found it!!! It’s called a Jackarina Finch!! That’s where I got Jackal from haha
