For some reason your comment is cut off after the Black-capped Chickadee? I see this "..." happen to comments all the time and it is irksome. Is there some way you can fix it?
I have been looking for the Carolina wren for a while, thank you so much
@@Gorzmalkinbro, click on “read more” then it will expand!
Great video! Easy to listen and learn to. What's your advice on learning bird watching?
I’m in northern Nj and I always hear a bird in spring and summer and can’t find it anywhere. I watched many videos. Could I whistle it to you lmao!
my key for blue jays is "does it sound like a crow but more annoying? its a blue jay"
Fitting since they’re both a part of the corvid family
I thought they said "WOAAAAAAAHHHH'
I hope you're joking.
The way I tell it's a blue Jay Is real easy ... its call sounds like it's been put through a Synthesizer. 🤠🖖 ♨️
Does it sound like "GET OFF MY LAWN!"
"Cheeseburguer", "potato chips", that has to be the most American interpretation of bird singing in History 😂
😂😂
I didn't know what the bird was called and I called it the cheeseburger bird everyone seemed to know what I was talking about but they didn't know the name either
I’ve heard the two note black-capped Chicadee call can also sound like “Hey baby”, but thinking of bird calls in terms of food is funnier.
Kinda love it. I get that's it's a pneumonic devices and helps with association of the calls. But lmao It's almost like when people use a spirit box or EVP and hear words out of random sounds
Trying to tell if the sparrows were from the video or actually outside my window
The mourning dove always makes me feel nostalgia. Takes me back to when I was small 🕊️
Right!?! Same for me! It brings me right back!
Me too!!! Why is that ? Of all the bird calls that is the one that takes me back in time , in a melancholy sort of way
For me, it's chickadees that bring me right back to my youth
I can sound just like one 😂
@KellyGoodlad-ml3gx When I was younger I used to hand feed black capped chickadees in my backyard.
What most people do not realize is that a Mockingbird never repeats the same song, they constantly change their song and it's mesmerizing to listen to.
They can imitate the sound of a landline phone ringing too. Back in the day I always thought the little rascals just enjoyed making you jump up and run to answer a phone that wasn't really ringing.
Same with the house finches in Colorado--changing their song each time. They're funny, they get louder as their song goes along. It always seems to me they must be out of breath by the end of it.
Maybe that’s what I’m hearing cause I check my phone every time because it sounds so familiar to a phone ringing
Fr, it’s amazing listening to crickets and then hear it mock them it’s kinda trippy
They do repeat themselves, it's just a large bank of impressions and calls before they repeat it.
It's amazing how some of these sounds can bring you right back to where you were in a forest or a specific season. Crows are so fall for me.
I love this video! I had to walk away from work at lunch today, and I heard a li'l bird telling me to "Drink your teeeea!" And it put a smile on my face, which, I desperately needed, today. So thanks for that! I love your matching lyrics to bird calls. Can't wait to learn more of what I hear every day!
i like the last part of your sentence ! very you-knee-eek !
Robins are spring for me. The minute I hear them, I know winter is over, and everything will soon bloom. Love the robin's song. I look forward to it every year.
true, crows are very winter for me, in my region at least
I'm SO glad that you said the Cardinal sounds like purdy purdy purdy! When I was little I'd walk outside and say "thank you" to the bird telling me I looked purdy that day. I still occasionally do it ☺️ LOL
They also say, For Reno, for Reno, for Reno. My husband’s name is Reno and my daughter used to laugh when they would call for Reno.
When I was a little girl my grandmother used to say, “That cardinal is calling you…purdy, purdy, purdy!” I never forgot their call!❤
Wholesome comment
I always thought it sounded like they were saying "birdie birdie birdie!” but who doesn't love an interspecies compliment? 🙂
I always hear birdie birdie birdie!
Or peter peter peter.
I need to work on my self esteem! 😂😉
I just learned that the owl sound I hear every day is actually a mourning dove, and my mind is blown 🤯
Thank you!
I got you 🤙
Yep, a real owl sounds like something you'd hear in a movie, a literal "who who WHO" and fairly loud.
Came here to say the same 😂
I'm listening to morning doves now❤
This video popped up while I was listening to some Morning Doves. Very informative and helpful. Thank you!
I always associate the mourning dove’s call with awkwardness. When I was a kid whenever we played outside with other kids if something happened that resulted in an awkward silence such as someone saying something mean, breaking something, etc almost on cue during the middle of the silence a mourning dove call would happen.
That’s kind of hilarious
Sameeeee
I have a mockingbird in my backyard and he/she always sits on the same tree everyday and shows me what bird noises they picked up
If it sits and sings a bunch then it is mostly likely a male!
@@catherinec3735 Thanks for telling me! I love studying birds!!
We have a mocking bird who comes around during the day,, and will perch atop of our chimney and will sing his songs. We enjoy listening to him through the fireplace, it's literally an amplified concert! Mocking birds are my favorite.❤🎶😁
That is supper cool. I often have the morning dove.
How awesome! U r sooo blessed❣️
The mourning dove calls always stick in my brain for some reason! Since i was little, it was the most memorable for me. I never knew what bird made this sound. We have many pigeons in my area (big city) so i always assumed it was some breed of pigeon 😂 im happy to learn this. Thank you.
It’s a very nostalgic call for most people! th-cam.com/video/nyaAPKbVi-0/w-d-xo.html
Me too. I've heard this before. I literally heard it yesterday, but knew it wasn't an owl as I'm a bird guy and just KNEW no owl sounded like this, and wouldn't be around in thr sunny noon here in Southern California near humans. I tried to find it but couldn't until I eventually did. Was surprised it was a pigeon. I really like it. It's haunting yet also empowering and spiritual, moreso than the loon or the crow
@AngeliaMeow The mourning doves in Tucson start vocalizing at about midnight and keep going all night. Maybe I need to get an owl decoy. ☮️
I was so disappointed years ago when I found out it wasn’t an owl....
Always heard in the morning while camping
My husband moved to Illinois from California and kept asking me who the "cheeseburger bird" was 😂 thank you for helping us figure out the mystery!
ha! my friend made the same exact interpretation!
I hear "hey sweetie"😘
my mom was over and said one bird was saying 'pretty bird' and I was here to see which bird it was.
Fee bee, Hey Sweetie, and cheeseburger. I don’t hear cheeseburger, but I do hear hey sweetie and definitely fee bee.
I grew up hearing that bird in the morning and never knew what species it is
My grandma (who was an avid birdwatcher) taught me that a Chickadee's two-note call is "Fee-Bee." She also said that they would change their call if the weather was going to get bad.
Yes, also if you hear the rapid Chickadee dee dee call it means their is a predator nearby.
So many of these remind me of my childhood playing on the street or hiking with friends. Simpler times man.
Although the Mourning Dove is labeled as the "most nostalgic" bird in the U.S., in my opinion, I think it's the American Robin for me. I've lived in Central New York my whole entire life and I always heard the American Robin in the morning especially when getting ready for school and waiting for the bus. It's such a bittersweet sound and feeling for me.
I could see that 👍
@@BadgerlandBirdingRight!? 😆
Me too, and chickadees. Those two notes. 😢
I’ve thought the mourning dove was an owl my entire life!
Same
OMG The first 3.. Dude you just solved over 50 years of wondering.. "Cheeseburger" I will whistle this and it answers every time. I never knew what the hell this bird was 😌
I’m so glad I stumbled upon this. I hear almost every single one of these everyday and never knew what type of birds they where. Thanks for All the information.
You info was so helpful. Thanks
It's been 43 yrs since I took a class on ornithology in the Adirondack Mountains. This brought back such good memories. Thank you.
I just found out that the chickadees make that call. I always whistle back to them when i hear it. It makes me so happy haha
Birds are fascinating creatures.
Wonderful! I came here in search of the "CHEESEburger" bird. I had no idea the Chickadee made that lovely sound. I was only familiar with their signature chick-a-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee song. Not only did I find exactly what I was looking for, I learned something fascinating as well. Thank you for this great video! Sincerely, An Ontario Birder 🐣
When my dad was alive he would teach me all sorts of the bird calls. Now that he’s been gone 10 years I’ve forgotten most of them. I was just laying in bed listening to a mourning dove, thinking it was a dove, but not sure. Now that I’m to have a child in July, it suddenly became important to learn these again. Thanks for the vid!
The mourning dove is one of my favorites. It’s so distinctive and soothing 🕊
Its spring and pretty nice out, so I have my windows open and there are so many bird calls happening outside right now! This video made it so fun trying to hear and identify all the noises
Glad you enjoyed it!
Chickadee, dove, and robin calls are the the sounds of my childhood 😭
And also the carindal and blue jay and sparrow and naybe robin too (grew up in the midwest)
Morning dove for me
Last year here in TN was magical. My grandma was visiting, and we had a snowy white Christmas. We all sat by the back deck door watching the birds, many were chickadees and cardinals, but the junco birds stood out against the rest! So much fun feeding and watching them sing and play!
A Mourning Dove sits atop my house antenna during the late winter beginning of spring and wakes me up in the morning. This was a great video. Thanks for sharing. 👏🏾👌🏿
I know a lot about the bird calls in North America. The northern mockingbird can mimic lots of different bird calls and they seem to be the most common bird here in Alabama.
That's true!
Aha
Same in southern Georgia, they're everywhere!
I had a mockingbird make a staple gun sound at me the other day.
No wonder J. Taylor have this song being a native Alabama is a must. th-cam.com/video/4WM_R-6AKHE/w-d-xo.html
Oh... Just listening to this video made me so happy. These are the sounds of every single morning in North Carolina. I know all the birds that live here- and I know the sound of all the bird calls by heart- but sometimes it's hard to connect the 2. Thank you kindly 💖
Black capped chickadee brings back fond memories of living in Massachusetts waking up in the morning as a child. Just a great sound.
I was watching a Carolina Wren the other day and became fascinated because I could see its throat vibrating wildly as it was making its calls. Great video!
I remember hearing these sounds as a boy. Very soothing and pleasing to me even now at 46.
So helpful for a homeowner who wants to recognize the bird calls I hear on my property.
Omg I hear the black capped chickadee every morning 😍 so cute
That towhee is definitely saying "flaava flaaAAVE!!" 😂
For the chickadee instead of cheeseburger I was told the short call is "hey sweetie" . Which is appropriate cause they are looking for a date.
That's a good one too!
@@BadgerlandBirding Being someone who has no sight, I can easily identify birds just by their calls! To me, the fish crow sounds like it could say, "Uh-oh!". There's one bird call I know, I think it's a song sparrow, but someone said it sounds like they sing, "Turn on your tea kettle-ettle-ettle-ettle!". The one I love the most is the call of a fledgling American Crow, which to me is a nasal "Caa!", that sometimes sounds like they're startled or even falling!
I've always heard "he did it"!!
@@lifebind3r Which bird would say that, I wonder?
@@MsAussie83 the black-capped chickadee
Loved this!! I have many Cardinals, Carolina Chickadees, Blue Jays and Mourning Doves at my feeders and I'm so use to their sounds I know them so well. These others not so much. Thanks, this was great!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it!
I thought the Mourning Dove was an owl I am such an idiot ;-;
They are very similar so that is easy to do. The morning doves are a little mellower and I believe they are most active during the day/morning, while owls are more active at night.
@@ToucanPlayIt no you are not. !!! 😊
So glad to have found this video! We watched it while homeschooling today to compliment our Birds mini unit study.
I loved this post!! I’ve been so curious about all the birds singing in my backyard every morning especially. I’ve definitely heard several of these in Ohio!! Thank you so much - so helpful ❤️🎶
This video is so uplifting and well put together, love it.
Birds are so joyful .
Nice to see other varieties as I live in UK.
Thank you for taking the time to put this all together so well
I recently downloaded a birdID app and have been obsessed for almost 2 months now as I've begun recognizing sounds. I have either heard myself or seen 47 different birds from my front door stoop in northern IL. We have some protected wetlands nearby and I'm humbled by the sheer diversity right outside my door. There's a northern mocking bird and Baltimore oriole nearby and it's awesome! Anyway, I like this video a lot and I'm subscribing!
I used one named Merlin. One day I recorded for just a couple of minutes and it told me I had 14 different bird songs. But I knew there was a mockingbird singing, so I figure it was a robin, a sparrow, a chickadee, and the rest were that mockingbird.
After over 15 years of searching for a bird I was able to find it with your video. The White throated sparrow.
I used to hear it outside my window in the spring when I was in 6th grade and then I moved. (I’m 30 now)
After that I would hear it randomly at least 3 times since then. Today I heard it again and started watching videos (I’ve done a search on TH-cam before with no luck) but finally !!! You helped me discover this magical bird 😍
Glad we could help solve your mystery!
Robin is the bird I hear evening and mornings going crazy.
Thank you so much! Every year we get Eastern Towhee, among others) but sometimes he sounds like “yeth we do” with a lisp and this year it’s more like “drink your tea”. It’s always the same notes just arranged differently. I’m so glad to find out the bird behind the sound!
I've heard the Mourning Dove and the Black-Capped Chickadee all my life. I never knew what they were called but their songs are so beautiful they have pulled me out of anxiety several times grounding me. Thanks for the education on what birds make these sounds!
My son wants to tell you that the Black Capped Chickadee is his favorite bird and his eyes lit up when you mentioned them!
That’s awesome! Tell him we say hi and thank him for watching!
I thought I was special but, by ignoring the birds, watching them with one eye, become the cow. They relax. Then you can introduce yourself quietly. ✨😊
Awesome video, you really nailed the equivalent English words to the various bird calls. Going to watch this many more times!
Our Florida Mockingbird says "pretty bird, pretty bird" but with a Southern accent, of course 😉
LOL! I believe it!
🦉Doves and owls very similar, I agree. The owl sounds more like a slow whisper, and the dove call is higher pitched. I enjoy hearing them both!😄🕊
Oh boy , my entire life I thought the Blue Jay was a crow. And did not realize it was the robin calling before dawn. Thanks for this upload.
Thank you! I found out what bird was making the owl sound in my backyard. It's the morning dove! Very cute.
Funny story about the chickadee, when I was a little boy and would be out playing around the barn or woods, I would hear my grandma calling, kevin kevin, half the time it was that dam bird. P.s when you're 7 years old, don't day dam bird to your grandma, I'm still blowing bubbles
When my mom passed two mourning doves came and sat on our rocking chairs for 3 days. Never saw them before ❤ sign my parents ok.
These sounds bring me back to growing up around Canadian nature surrounded by trees.
Yay! The blackcapped chickadee is my "Fee fooot" bird! Thank you! I'm 59 and just now know what my favorite bird sound is. Last fall is the first time I've heard it in the fall. Usually spring for me in West Michigan.
I love that chickadee call! It always sounds so joyous. I associate it with bright, sunny mornings walking to work.
I bought a book on birds back in 2007 and I identified all these birds!I love how we both identify these birds with a very similar tone and narration!
I don't have a good ear for memorizing songs so recognizing different bird calls is hard. I have heard almost all of these in my area though. PS I watch a mockingbird on a telephone pole do its songs, hop into the air & hover for a few seconds in place then fly in a back loop, land in same spot, resume singing then repeat the maneuver. Fascinating. To watch!
I finally know the name of my favorite bird call! I hear it every morning here in Texas. I’ve always thought it had a beautiful “mournful” tune. How fitting then that the bird is known as the mourning dove ❤
Happy to help!
The chickadee will always be my favorite, reminds me of a spring day
loved learning these calls, the only ones i already knew were mourning doves, blue jay, and cardinals. one of my biggest birding fails is that i heard a mourning dove every morning for 3 months, and everyday i went "why is that owl still awake???" until i finally asked my mom and she went "honey thats a mourning dove :/"
really glad i came across this cuz for the past 19 years i have never known which birds make which noises
I love the peaceful call of the mourning doves ❤
Carolina Wren very territorial. I recorded their sounds and played them. They came above me in a tree to find out what was going on Quite Amazing.
Thank you! I had no idea what I've heard sometimes is a white-throated sparrow :) I live in Northern Kentucky, and my dream bird to see is a Cedar Waxwing. I finally saw my first pair of bluebirds a few years ago while birding with a friend. Such a cool experience.
That’s so funny, that was always my dream bird to see as well. I finally got to see an entire flock of them on a mulberry tree (I’m guessing it was a rare native red mulberry because they’ve never shown up on the tons of non-native mulberries I’ve seen elsewhere) in Tennessee.
We got to see a family of blue birds this summer here in Virginia. I was lucky enough to get some good pictures of mom, dad and babes when they'd come to eat.
So glad I'm not the only one that hears the Chickadee song as "cheeseburger"
I love this. Why am I obsessed with birds. Ever since I put my bird feeders out, I became OBSESSED 😂
That’s how it starts! 🤣
Thank you so much for including the chickadee! I walk to my bus stop and hear these guys every day. I always wondered what bird that was
It's so strange for me to watch & listen to American birds because I'm from Middle Europe (Germany). Most species were new to me, but still familiar because of their "cousins" we know here in Europe. There are lots of similarities, but still most sing different. Nice birds you have over there 😊
I'm here because of that morning dove call I mistook for an owl, great video! I could identify a few of these around me as I was watching.
You are my life saver bro I am literally just trynna become some sort of monk and connect with nature and this video helps me so much. Thank you for your kindness.
I’m in New Jersey and have heard all these birds at one time or another . Thank you for putting this together
Thank you so much for sharing this! It’s so helpful to distinguish all the different bird sounds. Awesome!
Cardinal was the first I learned as a child because a mama built her nest on year in the Rose of Sharon bush outside my bedroom. Happy childhood memories.
I love the Robin. It marks the beginning of spring and the end of fall. Very nostalgic call, almost makes me feel the warm spring morning air, or the cool fall evening. It's always a joy to hear one of them calling at the start of spring.
Spring has sprung for sure here in ct and so many songs to hear. Can always pick out my morning dove which is singing away right now. 😊 this was great and I look forward to listening to this many more times to get them down a little better. ❤
I work at a ski resort and was running a small little ski-in place that was outdoors. After I would get everything setup I would have a good hour 1/2 to just sit quietly in the middle of the woods and listen. The chickadee was the only call i could get down but they would talk to me. Plenty of magpies and kings raven. Thank you for the great video!
Black capped chickadee. I always wondered what they were. We have so many and I always whistle back.
Cardinals also do a loud PEEP sound. I always thought it was a warning.
You forgot orioles. I get a lot at my grape jelly feeder.
I was playing this on a Bluetooth speaker. Just happened to be a Downey woodpecker on suet block 10 yards away. Woke him up! Lol. Awesome video. Thanks!
This was so informative! Thank you! You have made my outside adventures more enjoyable!
I just love this tutorial!!! I need to save it as I am a slow learner. That being said….your comparison to words is how my brain works! So thanks!! 🎉🎉🎉
Hello Suzy👋👋
How are you doing today?
oh my gosh, once you said "cheese-burger" for the chickadee it infiltrated my brain and now thats all i can hear lol i love it
I live near Puget Sound, (NW U.S) and many of these birds are common here, at least in wooded areas, so I found this video very helpful, and fun. Thanks! As a child I I was taught that robins sing “”Cheer up! Cheer up!” , and blue jays scream “thief! Thief!!Thief!”
Hello 👋👋
How are you doing today??
What the sparrow lacks in the beauty of its song it makes up in its enthusiasm of delivery. Thanks for this - I now know what that mysterious call is - the chickadee!
OMG I JUST FOUND THIS CHANNEL AND I LOVE IT SO MUCH SO UNDERRATED
the mourning doves and robins are what i remember waking up to the most
Southeastern Wisconsin born & raised, and one of my favorite things to do in Spring & Summer is have my morning coffee on my patio, listening to the birds sing around me. There is one particular call that I always associate with ponds and small bodies of water, and I have no idea what bird it is, but I love the call! It sounds more like a warbling, and I'm guessing its a finch or chickadee. I hear it a lot when I hike the Kettle Morraine, but I love the sound! Such a summer sound for me! Great video!! Thanks for posting!!
Edit: a little more searching and the bird song I'm thinking of is that of a red winged blackbird!! My all time favorite summer sound!
I like to go biking along a nature trail. Not only do I want to learn bird sounds, I also want to identify trees and plants.
We just had a brown thrasher in our birdbath. We are in Central Florida. Thanks so much for your video❤
Grew up with chickadees my favourite, but finally, that's a morning dove I always hear but never see.
Not me looping this video while I sleep hoping I just suck it all in 😂 this is so helpful, thank you!!
I had some kind of thrush singing away in a red elderberry bush for a long time and every time I would get close to figure out what bird it was, it'd stop making noise. Finally got a glimpse of it though it blended in real well. It was the most melodic song I've heard from a songbird and never did figure out which one it was. Nice video 👍
Thanks! Check out Wood Thrush and Hermit Thrush and see if one of those fits
@@BadgerlandBirding Yeh, I was expecting you to include a thrush. Also love brown thrashers.
@@fionawebster9902 check out the spring version of this video, which included both 👍
The chickadee is “Hey Sweetie!” 🤪😝😁👍 . 🤣🤣”potato chip” 🤣🤣🤣 And stop this video is too cute 😍😍😍😍😍
I like that one too!
Every single type of those woodpeckers r here around my house lol! I love watching them!
We have all of these in Missouri. I'm hoping the house wrens return to their nesting site underneath eaves of my house inside the siding so I can hear it's beautiful call. Such a loud, shrill call for a small, shy bird. I can't wait for my ruby throated hummingbirds to show up from their migration in the next few days!
Living in AZ and OK as well as Tennessee, Mocking birds have "accents" or "dialects". I was raised in AZ, I'm still not used to identifying the Mocking birds out here.
Also, I've heard cardinals make a laser-like call
I grew up in Buffalo, NY. I lived in Pittsburgh, PA for 30 years. I live in Coastal Virginia. Some of the crows around here don't just "caw", they drop the sound at the end too. Could it be a Southern Accent? 🤔😆🤣
I'm so happy, I found your channel 🤗 I love learning anything about bird's and how each one sings !!!
Thank you 🤗
Thank you. I have been searching for the name of the black-capped bird. All this time I thought it was a mockingbird. The black capped is my favorite bird
You’re welcome!
I live in an east coast suburb and these birds are a big part of what outside sounds like here.
