Bird SongOk, I've been listening to this bird for 5 years, since I moved to a coastal town in Southern California. Does anyone know what type of bird this is? I haven't gotten a closer still picture, but I did capture his song. Sorry for the wobbly video, the camera was fulled zoomed.

1) I don't know bird song very well--used to know a lot of them when I lived in the bird paradise of Bristol, TN. From the song, it sounds like a finch or warbler of some type but without any color or body to look at, I'm stumped. Maybe Steve will have an idea.

2) I vote for either purple finch or house finch.

3) thank you for your guessing- my mission is now to get a close up of our mystery songster!

4) so - although a while late, I passed the video past the view of some birder friends of mine - the verdict is definitively for "House Finch" (although a Purple Finch would be similar in appearance, the song is house finch).

5) Awesome! Thanks for gumshoeing the answer for me. ;-)
