Hi Jerald and all, I can see why you would think Field Sparrow. It could be the short variant of Field Sparrow since it is only 57 milliseconds in duration. The second band (which is uncommon in Field Sparrow) is even shorter and beneath the longer band. I believe a second (shorter or fainter band) would normally be above. I think it is too short for any other descending, double-banded sparrow flight call except Savannah Sparrow. Given that it is short and double-banded, I would be more inclined toward Savannah Sparrow

I'm thinking it's a Field Sparrow but I'm not sure. The spectrogram doesn't look right for Savannah.
