Maroon-bellied Conure song and calls

Birdsong and calls are often the easiest way to identify the Maroon-bellied Conure, especially when the bird is hidden in dense foliage. Below is what to listen for.

Song

Not known for a distinct 'song' in the traditional sense. Their vocalizations are primarily calls.

Calls

A variety of high-pitched, chattering, and screeching calls. Common calls include a rapid, rolling 'kree-kree-kree' or 'scree-scree-scree' often given in flight or when disturbed. They also produce softer chattering and twittering sounds when perched and feeding. Calls are generally less harsh than some other conure species.

When they vocalize

Most vocal during flight, when foraging, and at roosting sites, particularly at dawn and dusk.
