Songs

Males sing an emphatic, metallic “eee-slick,” often given during flight display just before alighting.

Calls include a high, thin single note; a lower-pitched chek; and short, very high-pitched buzzy notes.

Male sometimes produces a mechanical sound during flight display by clapping his wings together while jumping.
