In a recent message, Al Schirmacher confessed to mistaking a =
Chestnut-sided Warbler's song for that of a Yellow Warbler. Al, you are =
not alone. I've heard it stated that the Yellow's song always ends on =
an up-slurred note. It's probably true that an up-slurred ending =
indicates Yellow, but I've watched numerous Yellows singing and ending =
on a down-slurred note. Can anyone out there distinguish with certainty =
which of these species is singing when the song ends with a downward =
slur in habitat where either could occur? If so, can you explain how =
you do it?
Thank you.
