For anyone who might want to know: The conclusion seems the be a N Parula- they certainly do have song variations for sure. This one must have been either in the grass itself or a VERY low shrub. I will put it under that species on the eBird checklist for the record. James C also points out the Chimney Swifts in the second recording- the big barn bordering this field most always has one nest up in the loft- we think there are more around in barns, sheds etc elsewhere and ask everyone to listen and look for them (it's a good time now) and please let us know if you note any.

And it would be unusual, although not impossible, for a NOPA to sing from grass. I can't think of anything else, and I looked up various rare grass dwellers, e.g. Field and Tree sparrows, Indigo bunting etc., and I couldn't find anything else really that fits. > > On Mon, Jun 25, 2018 at 9:31 AM, James Churchill <jameslchurchill@gmail.com> wrote: > hi Nancy, > This is a Northern Parula like Dendroica #8 or #10 > (not sure if adding the link to Dendroica here will cause my message to be rejected) > > On Mon, Jun 25, 2018 at 7:42 AM, Rick Whitman <dendroica.caerulescens@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Nancy, All, > I think this is a very interesting tape. I'm guessing that it may be an insect, perhaps some sort of Orthoptera. But I would really like to know what anyone else thinks, especially if they reply privately to you. > It also sounds somewhat like a Black-throated Green Warbler. They do sing quietly at times.

Repeated multiple times at intervals so likely a song. These birds were singing in the field, down in the grasses. Juncos with a twist? May not be a sparrow but sounds like one. > > https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/105449101?__hstc=60209138.654ce176d843afbf64b3825199d7a408.1396643674838.1529852205436.1529878294901.276&__hssc=60209138.4.1529878294901&__hsfp=2933905051 > > Thanks for any opinions, Nancy > > > > > -- > James > > > > > > > -- > ################# > Richard Stern, > Port Williams, NS, Canada > sternrichard@gmail.com > ###################
