Canto

The male's song is a loud, rapid, and cheerful series of phrases, typically starting with a series of 'chip-chip-chip' notes, accelerating into a jumbled trill, and ending with a distinctive, emphatic 'tschink' or 'chick-choo-wee' flourish. It's often described as 'chip-chip-chip-choo-wee-oo-wee-oo-wee-chick-choo-wee'. Songs vary regionally and individually, with males often having multiple song types.

Richiami

Common calls include a sharp, metallic 'pink!' or 'chink!' call, often given in flight or when alarmed. A softer 'chupp' or 'hweet' contact call is also used. The 'rain call' is a distinctive, drawn-out 'hweet' or 'tew' often heard before or during rain.

Quando vocalizzano

Males sing vigorously from early spring (February/March) through the breeding season (until July), primarily in the mornings and evenings. Calls are given year-round.
