Hi everyone-I made a few mistakes! Firstly, the bird pictured at slide #8, labelled as a Carolina Chickadee, is actually a Black-capped Chickadee, as I have been informed and then confirmed for myself (the calls are all correct though!). Second, the image on slide number #68 displays a Spotted Towhee, not an Eastern Towhee as it is labelled (again, the calls for this bird are correct!). Lastly, slide #28 shows the image of a Northern Flicker, which is the correct species; however, this species contains two subspecies: the yellow-shafted flicker of the east, and the red-shafted flicker of the west. The flicker shown is the red-shafted subspecies which would not occur in the east as is the theme of this video. That is all! If you notice any more mistakes in the video, please do not hesitate to let me know! We are a community of learning, and as such, we should not be afraid to offer constructive criticism for the good of another. Thank you all for your understanding!

I also think that 7:48 fits better for a Lincolns sparrow than a song sparrow- streaking is finer and black, the bird has yellowish tinge above the malar strip- also seems to have a buffish upper breast.

@@Revelationscreation Thanks for your input! Looking back, I realize that probably isn’t the best picture I could’ve used, but I do still believe it is a song sparrow. You could be right though! These species can be tricky to distinguish.

i love how in so many of these you can hear some crows cawing in the background

Love Crows and the Black Birds singing in the dead of night, like Paul McCartney sang out with joy, "all your life you were only waiting for these moments to be Free", Black Bird Fly..., Ruby Throated Sparrows near by

This was incredible. Thank you for putting this together.

Birds complete the mornings around here that way

This was a lot of fun; I love to test my birdsong recognition skills. I am certain, though, that the bird pictured as number 8 is a Black-capped Chickadee, not a Carolina. Black-capped Chickadees have that olive color on their backs, white edges on the shoulder feathers and a slightly washed-out orange on the belly. Carolina Chickadees are more a uniform gray on the wings with a white belly.

I'm in the Wash DC area where I see Carolina Chickadees daily and the bellies are always white, never yellowish. My ear is not that good to distinguish but for #8 I'm upping my score for visual ID by one. : )

OMG. I’ve been wanting to know the song identity of the Carolina Chickadee for years ! Thanks ! 👍👍

I live in western PA and have seen all but maybe 15 or so of these birds. Also about 25 yrs ago I rescued a peregrine falcon in downtown Pittsburgh. Found a baby laying on the sidewalk that had fallen out of its nest. I'm surprised it survived the fall and that no one had stepped on it. After contacting the right people it was placed back in the nest.

Having moved to Japan over 30 years ago, I was amazed at how many songs I recognized from the woods of western PA. Thank you for reminding me of those wonderful summer mornings and afternoons spent out hiking.

My wife and I were raised in Western Maryland and spent a lot of time in PA and Ohio. This video was a real walk down memory lane for us both. We got about 80% correct between us, maybe 50% from voice alone. I must say that some of the songs brought on a very emotional response - like the Wood Thrush. Thank you so much for your time and effort in compiling this. We will definitely listen numerous times more (as we now live in Tucson, AZ) and we miss hearing our Eastern birds.

I am from Baltimore County and have travelled extensively in Western Maryland and on the Delmarva Peninsula. I also summered in Maine. I got about 80% by sight and 20 % by song. I miss visiting Western MD, West Virginia, and Winchester, VA, and of course Delmarva. I am 76 yro and my Dodge Caravan is 21 yro. with only 150,000 miles. I only travel locally due to the age of my trusty Dodge. I brought back some Maine White pine from a dead mature tree and carved and painted 7 birds. The wood was as easy to carve as a bar of Ivory Soap. The first bird I carved and painted was a Loon that resided on China Lake, Maine.

Yes, it's emotional. I listened to this hoping I could find and identify the bird that makes my favorite sounds, and song and it's this Wood Thrush (23:18) and (I numbered them as they play) so, also # 17, the Song Sparrow (7:24) (which may not be the right name according to one viewer. Lincolns Sparrow?) Going to try looking them up or finding a compellation. When I hear it, I'm a young girl standing in the sunlit woods of upstate New York. Memories & pure happiness. Moved away from NY years ago and miss the birds and their singing so much it's painful. Birdsong is healing. ༄❥

Thank you for posting this! For years I'd hear a bird song a few weeks out of the summer in northern Wisconsin. Nobody knew the name of the bird that sang it. It haunted me! As soon as I heard # 30, I knew I found it. White throated Sparrow! Thank you!

This is such a good video! Thanks for sharing! In the spring I kept hearing the weirdest sounds from some bird in the yard. With your video I can confirm it was definitely the grey catbird. So fun to see where the bird sounds are coming from! Ps the loon sound is so freaky...

Thank you! Your comment is a present in itself! I’ve always found that when I throw myself out in nature I come across so many joys I could not expect. I trek out to the woods with the expectation to observe the birds, but find many of them instead flitting over to observe me! It’s always the small ones especially, such as the chickadees and kinglets, and it’s ethereally precious to see their crumb-sized eyes scrutinise you in their tiny wiseness.

@@unipigstudios7794 I know just what you mean! They are quite intelligent and sentient! I wish more humans would recognize that! I had the great pleasure, when I lived back east, of having the chickadees eat out of my hand. It was truly a profound joy for me! Now that I'm back in California, I find I miss them! Brave little sweethearts that they are! (of course, many amazing birds here too!) Thank you again!!

Great way to teach us our local birds! Thank you very much!

Totally delightful! Thank you for all the time you took to put this together, I'm amazed at what I knew by sound, knew by sight and still missed some I'm not familiar with in my area! LOVE THIS!

Great job! Appreciate all the hard work that went into the video.❤️

I loved hearing the songs again, from the sweet high pitched Willow Tit to the deep crackle of the ravens!. Quite a few of these birds are in the Northwest also. I lived in Minnesota and saw the Red-winged Blackbirds, Orioles, cardinals, and my favorite the Loon whose song echoed over the lakes in the evenings. Lived in Washington state too with the crows and especially the loud ravens who were arrogant and made themselves seen roaming the parking lots looking for handouts. Love them all. Such a beautiful video in every way, I commend your attention to detail and perfect design.

So good! 52% by ear, another 24% with the picture, 24% unsure. Of the unsure I knew the bird family but not the proper name of half. Excellent test….please do another.

Thank you for doing this. I thoroughly enjoyed listening and seeing each bird. I’m currently enjoying wrens, white-throated sparrows, and robins nesting nearby. The sounds are lovely. I will refer to this channel constantly. I got about 15 correct with sound alone and 70 correct with the photos. I don’t see such a variety of ducks and shorebirds around here, nor the colourful orioles, tanagers, martins, or bluebirds. It would be wonderful to see a yellow warbler, but I’m happy to see as many colourful finches as I do. Thanks for this channel.

I so much enjoyed this! I was able to identify 84 birds and I was surprised at how many I recognized just by their songs. My weakness was some of the water birds, the mergansers, and some of the vireos and warblers.

Wow! This is so well done. Beautiful photos, helpful labels, and fun way to roll it out (e.g. sound, photo, identification). Thak you for sharing!

I love this! I hear so many of these around our property. A few of them are regulars at our birdfeeders. We love hearing the barred owls at night.

That was a wonderful birding refresher. You used some very good pictures, thank you for taking the time to find good ones. I will definitely be re-watching to learn the bird song better as that is my weakness. Thanks!

Thanks..often birds are heard rather than seen so this is a great reference to help identify birds by their vocalizations.

this is great, i can appreciate the time it took, thank you!

Thank you for this video compilation. Last summer i heard at least 2 new bird sounds in my city neighborhood but never saw the birds making the sounds. Wish i had had this to attempt identification, as my ancient brain has not retained the sounds!

Thanks for posting. I cross-referenced these with the Merlin app from Cornell. It could not guess the cormorant, the meadowlark, and a couple warblers and mergansers, and that's with the updated North American bird pack. Maybe my location did not jive with those birds being in the area, so it would not report. Very educational though, thanks.

Great compilation! I love that you played the vocalizations first. I scored about 90%. Was unfamiliar with 2 or 3, mixed up a couple of my wrens. That was fun, thanks!

This is a wonderful video, beautiful photographs etc. I was able to identify 5-7 birds. I will continue to work on it! Thanks for posting ...

Outstanding and informative. I'll be saving this site for future reference.

thanks so much, I enjoy that greatly. It was put together in such a way as to make it fun to first listen then view

Thank you for all of your work to create this wonderful birding guide. I grew up in Lancaster County but have lived in Colorado for the past 40 years. Some crossover in birds, seemingly more so in the last few years, but plenty of unique species too. Well done you.

I am in Georgia, and I think we miss a few here. I recognized about 25% by sound, another 25% more or less (I knew it was a woodpecker but not which kind), about 25% by picture, and the last quarter was unknown. Specially warblers, oreoles etc I did not know. And I knew from several by sound it were water birds but needed the photo to put a name on them. Not so bad, specially since I am originally from Europe. I was pretty pleased, and I will check your video more often now that I can put a picture to the gazzilion tiny birds singing in the wasteland behind my yard! Thank you so much for this treasure!

One of the best videos on KZread! I'm going to watch this again and again. Guessed maybe 10 to 15%. I so often see birds that I don't recognize; hopefully will improve with this. STUNNING photos, mesmerizing recordings. Thank you!

Thank you for starting with the easy ones, now I can build from that.

There were a couple I could name by sound alone. Blue jay, catbird, mourning dove, cardinal, mallard. I knew more than I expected to. Thanks for an interesting video. I really enjoyed it.

You’re adorable that’s who! I have a young pair of dove picking their first nest - on my back porch. Guess we’ll be sharing this spring💕

Thank you for this video! I compete in envirothon and this really helped me study my bird calls and identification:)

We have a lot of these in our yard in TN! I have heard many of these, although i didn’t know some of their names! Good to match a voice with a face!

Loved this. Thank you

This is a great video. I am from Oregon and not familiar with some of the birds, yet I was surprised to know I can identify more than I expected. Thank you for this.

Only got about 10 of them right just by the sound but I got about 80 of them right when I saw the picture. This is so exciting and fun ❤ Thank You !

They make the most wonderful sounds just had 19 in my front yard other day went out an had great experience with every birdie love the quiet not silent vulture they are so funny ! Thank you for sharing this upload ✌️💞🤟

Very cool. I could only watch 15 but will come back to it. Love the birds!

Did I miss cardinal and blue jay? I enjoyed this thoroughly ☺️🎶. Great work 🌼🌼🕊️

Thank you so much! Several of the songs were too high-pitched for our ears, but we were able to correctly identify 93 by sight. My husband and I at least felt ok about a few that we knew the family, not specific ones; also with thrushes. Glad for your clarification - about the b c chickadee vs. carolina. Also the towhee. We winter in Az and rest of year in the midwest. This was great! Thanks again!

Great piece, thanks. Sharing with my 3 year old grandson C5.

This is awesome. I am in South Central Pennsylvania and I had know problem identifying the ones that hung out on my second story deck. My personal favorites are Mourning Doves, Catbirds and Red Tailed Hawks.

Excellent idea. Very helpful. Thank you.

I absolutely love this video! It was so fun and informative! I got about 98% of the visual identification. Think about 30% of sound identification. I will be watching this again! Great way to test and enhance your bird identification knowledge! Thanks for sharing!

This is great. One of the best interactive videos ever. 👍👍

There's a song by Bathory named Ring of Gold and I have been looking for the name of the bird that you can hear in the intro. It's the Common Loon! Thank you for this 💚

This was Beautifully done! Wow. I guessed all but 11 by song and 6 I couldn't identify. I've been living in Florida for 30 years and only a small amount of these precious birds migrate this far south. So I think I did pretty well.❤ Thanks.

I was amazed that I could identify quite a few of the birds, and I enjoyed listening to their beautiful music without human interference. Thank You so much. I now live on the west coast, and wonder about the bird sounds here that I do not recognize. Love from Oregon.
