| Re: Blackbird Songs Meanings
Hi Hampshire Hog.
Welcome to WAB.
The soft choog choog notes are contact calls as Bramble says. The alarm rattle means just that. He will take your food but his instinct is still to be a bit wary of you, especially if he has chicks nearby.
Is the 'single quiet note' the seep, seep that Bramble mentions? This is their 'hard to locate' alarm call, as it is high pitched, it can be difficult to pin point so the bird can give the alarm without giving away its location if a predator is about. Keeping itself dead still will help conceal it & it may look like its in a trance. |
