hi Shawna, I found this The Mountain Chickadee, also are more heard than seen, has a distinctive "chick-a-dee" call. They are also referred to as the "cheeseburger bird" due to their spring/summer call that sounds similar to "cheese-bur-ger". Here are some more just for interest Paul, Minn. — Here are the phrases that birders use to identify bird calls: Yellow warbler: Sweet, sweet, summer sweet. White-throated sparrow: Oh sweet Canada, Canada, Canada. Black-throated blue warbler: I am so lazy. Olive-sided flycatcher: Quick-three-beers! Golden-cheeked warbler: Lazy daisy. Chestnut-sided warbler: Pleased, pleased to meet you! Great horned owl: Who? Who? Who? Prairie chicken: Old Man Muldoon, Muldoon, Muldoon. Blue jay: Jay! Jay! Jay! Tufted titmouse: Peter! Peter! Peter! Red-eyed vireo: Here I am, way up here, see me? Black-capped chickadee: Here sweety. Least sandpiper: Creeep! Creeep! Creeep! Warbling vireo: I'll grab you and I'll hold you and I'll squeeze you til you squirt! Ovenbird: Teacher! Teacher! Teacher! Whip-poor-will: Whip-Poor-Will, whip-Poor-Will. Great-crested flycatcher: Weep, weep, weep! American bittern: Plum puddin, plum puddin, plum puddin! American goldfinch: Potato chips, potato chips, potato chips. Carolina wren: Tea kettle, tea kettle, tea kettle! Ash-throated flycatcher: Tea-for-two, tea-for-two! Rufous-sided towhee (Eastern towhee): Drink your tea! Barred owl: Who-cooks-for-you-all? Eastern meadowlark: See-you, see-year! |

You people have to be Nuts! Birds don't sing anything special. Some birds are 'crazy' When I walk the dog at night,this is happening now for about 5 weeks,this crazy bird I think its a King Fisher, follows us for the whole mile just chirping at us. It stays about 6 feet away. But its there every night.Crazy bird!! |

Shortcut: Kill-deer, kill-deer, kill-deer Song: The best-known song is a loud kill-dee, kill-dee, kill-dee, given as males perform wide circle-flights over their territories in early spring. Call: Plaintive nasal alarm calls sound like k'dee... k'dee... k'dee-dee-dee, or a repeated deet-deet-deet-deet. Another distinctive call is a long stuttering trill, which may accompany courtship, aggressive encounters, and alarm situations. |
