Song Phrase 1
Song Phrase 1, Lake Co., OR, 06/28/2005 Frequency right on 6 kHz, so intermediate between COFL and PSFL. Click "Previous Bird" a time or two and you will notice that this one is higher than others from the Warners.
Song Phrase 2
Song Phrase 2, Lake Co., OR, 06/28/2005 Discontinuous phrase 2, like most Warner birds. Matches right-most example for COFL. Tick frequency around 3 kHz = COFL. Maximun frequency is at top of COFL range, too low for PSFL. Middle note is a little flat in shape but final note is very similar to standard (right-most example of COFL Phrase 2). Overall, close to COFL.
Song Phrase 3
Song Phrase 3, Lake Co., OR, 06/28/2005 This single specimen of Song Phrase 3 from this bird is so faint that it's difficult to characterize, except that the frequency is not much above typical COFL range.
Male Position Note
Male Position Note, Lake Co., OR, 06/28/2005 Close to COFL, the absence of a break being the main deficiency. Because the terminal frequency is lower, this is a bit more COFL-like than Territory 9's. On the other hand, this one clearly sounds continuous, while the latter does not. The frequency range sounds as well as looks right for COFL.
Female Position Note
