    Songs and calls, Warsaw (Poland), today

    After participating in another thread, I feel compelled to shore up my case. All excerpts in the collage below were taken from recordings containing only this type of call and not others (with the possible exception of background noise, which shows as much quieter than the main sound/sounds) so...

    One more thing, the sources I consulted didn't mention that a call of (White-bellied) Barn Swallow can be similar as well (and not so slurred as most House Sparrow calls tend to be). However, it is still seperable from Tawny Pipit's: the hill has its left, not right as above, slope doubled, the...

    Songs and calls, Warsaw (Poland), today

    After some reading and much thinking, I think I've found a way to handle such queries. At Tawny Pipit (Anthus campestris) :: xeno-canto I can see all Tawny Pipit flight calls recorded when the bird wasn't seen, i.e. identified based on the recording alone. There I've found several examples of...

    Thanks for flagging up potential confusion species for me to consider.

    I think I'm entitled to one last bump here, the question being: does this recording contain a Tawny Pipit flyover at the end? @kuzeycem @Val35 @Hotspur

    Yes, I know. Thank you for this additional advice.

    Songs and calls, Warsaw (Poland), today

    I don't usually do that because I'm too lazy myself. I prefer to use the apps as a way to learn calls I can't ID (and then check them against the model sounds), or draw my attention to commoner species I fail to pick out by the ear. EDIT: I thought the call fitted the pattern of a flyover...

    Ad 2) I think I ought to forget about anything happening before 0:16. I've further trimmed and normalised the recording, which now lasts 10 seconds. The last two calls match up pretty well with the flight call: ML203693571 Tawny Pipit Macaulay Library, but sounds similar to the flight calls...

    Songs and calls, Warsaw (Poland), today

    Habitat: tall grass and herbage, bushes, scattered trees, ditch, river 1) Here are two clips identified as a singing Whinchat by Merlin, and, while I'd be inclined to believe it given the clips are pretty long (and the original was even longer), I'd prefer to tick it when I'm able to better...
