Canto e richiami di European Stonechat

Canto e richiami sono spesso il modo più semplice per identificare European Stonechat, soprattutto quando l'uccello è nascosto tra fitto fogliame. Ecco cosa ascoltare.

Canto

A short, high-pitched, scratchy, and somewhat jumbled warbling song, often delivered from a prominent perch. It can be described as a 'tsip-tsip-tsip-tsee-tsee-tsee' or 'wit-wit-wit-tsee-tsee'. It is less melodious than many other thrushes.

Richiami

The most characteristic call is a sharp, clicking 'chack-chack' or 'tsak-tsak', often repeated rapidly, which gives the bird its common name 'Stonechat'. Also a softer 'wit' or 'tseep' contact call.

Quando vocalizzano

Most vocal during the breeding season (spring and early summer), with males singing to attract mates and defend territory. Calls are given year-round, especially when alarmed or communicating with a mate.
