Songs

The short 3-part song begins with a quick se-put, following by a husky tsurrt, and ending with a low-pitched chu-lup. The whole song lasts about 1.5 seconds. The last element of the song is clearly lower in pitch than the last element of Dusky Flycatcher’s song.

Calls

A clipped but sweet pip is the most commonly heard call, probably used as an alarm and contact call. Other buzzy, trilled, and whistled calls are limited to the breeding grounds.
