Canto

A varied, warbling, and often scratchy song, typically delivered from a prominent perch. It includes mimicry of other bird species and often has a 'churring' quality. The song is a rapid succession of short, high-pitched phrases, often starting with a few clear notes and becoming more jumbled and scratchy.

Richiami

Common calls include a sharp, 'tack-tack' or 'tsack-tsack' call, often given when alarmed or agitated. Also a soft, whistled 'hoo-eet' or 'whee-t' contact call.

Quando vocalizzano

Most vocal during the breeding season (spring and early summer) when males are establishing territories and attracting mates. Calls are given year-round, especially when disturbed or in contact with other individuals.
