Index of Subjects Thank you everyone. The consensus seems to be Canada jay and perhaps the end whistle should have alerted me to that species. Quite the vocalists they are. And I suspect N Goshawks are largely silent this time of year.

The quality of the call does not sound quite right for CAJA nor does the elusive nature of the bird although CAJAs have a huge and varied repertoire. > > Nancy > > > On Oct 21, 2019, at 8:01 PM, John Kearney <j.f.kearney@gmail.com> wrote: > > > > Sounds like a distant Canada Jay, Nancy. > > > > Sent from my iPad > > > >> On Oct 21, 2019, at 7:06 PM, NancyDowd <nancypdowd@gmail.com> wrote: > >> > >> Another strange sound someone might recognize. This bird has been torturing me for the last month in an area of remote mixed woods of E Dalhousie, Kings. I have heard it only 4-5 times in the same area with the greatest distance being 2km apart. Never see it. It calls a few times then it stops. I was lucky enough to catch the end call on my iPhone today before silence. A strange call with an odd ringing shrillness that seems to slow and peter out at the end with a descending whistle. Any thoughts? Amplified only. Not necessarily a passerine but that was a convenient place to put it for now. > >> https://macaulaylibrary.org/asset/183416991 > >> > >> Thanks, Nancy D >
