Songs

Males court females with a twittering, buzzy carol, a series of chew notes that vary in pitch and loudness and are interspersed with other calls. In the Aleutian Islands, females occasionally sing as well.

Calls

An incisive, rising, buzzy chew is the most commonly heard call, given in flight and many different interactions. Alarm calls include chirping and squawking sounds.
