and Baltimore Oriole, I still think what I heard was a Cardinal. The C Wren
has a much qucker tempo - the song I head was about a second for each

Yesterday I heard a song, a thrice repeated ascending arpeggio, roughly a
musical perfect 4th between each: g c f, g c f, g c f (just to give an
idea). This was downtown, S Albany St a block north of the traffic circle.
They are whistling or piping sounds, quite musical. Fairly easy to imitate

recording you referenced.

Folks have suggested C Wren and B Oriole, but don't think so. This bird was

lake, from the hills, from the sky*), but more than a major 3rd between the
