Recorded by J.R. Rigby on 2017-10-29 United States, Oxford, Lafayette County, Mississippi | ||
Comments: call.   Soft "churr" call. Bird was moving around in a dense vine ~5m above the ground, apparently with other birds present in the vegetation but difficult to see for ID. On my approach the bird moved to an outer branch of the vine and continued the soft call. 60 F calm. Distance from microphone ~10 m. Habitat  29-acre estate centrally located in Oxford, MS consisting of antebellum home surrounded by lawns and adjacent forest. Privet hedges and small thickets divide the grounds into distinct lawn units. Bordered on all sides by mature oak-hickory forest. Forest edge consists of oak spp, hickory spp, red cedar, mulberry, with understory along the edge dominated by privet (Ligustrum sp.). Grounds around the house include isolated trees and manicured hedges. A path from the end of the parking area leads northward ~1 km through the forest to the northern edge of the property abutting the University of Mississippi campusEditing  Adobe Audition.
