Blackcap Vs Garden Warbler song - How to easily tell them apart

It's my second video offering insights on how to make the distinction between Blackcap and Garden Warbler song. You'll see I always point to the higher pitched notes at the end of just about every Blackcap you hear.
I hope it helps as many people as possible

That’s a really good tip, thank you

[@frasercottington5828]

I'll try to keep them coming

To my ears the first note or two of a blackcaps song tend to be a bit scratchy, uncertain of pitch, whereas the garden warbler thinks of the note before it starts (I am a choir trainer).

[@frasercottington5828]

Agreed

Great video. I’m a lifetime birder and also a pro musician with an Associate Diploma from the Royal College of Music so obviously I have a good ear but never the less, even with a trained musical ear I find the two very hard to separate, listening for the Blackcaps higher pitch will be helpful next year so a big thank you.

I hope it does help, having attempted to help people differentiate many calls in the field it is clear we are all given different 'gifts' some can hear better, others less so. It does appear to also be a case of getting it on the day, but then tomorrow, it all seems less clear all over again. Best wishes

Thank you so much. Really helped a lot.

[@frasercottington5828]

I can only say I am thrilled it helped, thank you for commenting

Great video, I love your knowledge but you did use the word "easily" in your video discription. Maybe for the experienced, but not for a North Mancunian, where we rarely see these birds, all the same, a very enjoyable video. I always learn something from your channel. 👍 Keep on posting.... Great stuff. Great channel.

[@frasercottington5828]

It all comes with time in the field and maybe a bit of dedication

[@nigelhopper9383]

I'm pretty good on bird song ID but struggle between Blackcap and a Garden Warbler

[@frasercottington5828]

I hope that my video takes you even one step nearer to separating them
