[cobirds] Smartphone recordings Pieplow's field guide to solve flycatcher mystery (Chaffee County)
Yesterday while on my last stop at Hecla Junction, I encountered a call that I recognized as either an Ash-throated Flycatcher or Cassin's Kingbird. I was on a steep, gravelly slope in pinyon-juniper woodland with a smattering of Douglas fir. For the next several minutes, I trudged up and down the dry landscape trying to get close enough to the elusive flycatcher to record the call with my iPhone and an external microphone. When I finally got what I realized was a close as I would get, I recorded this song (edited version).
