Hear the calls of 50 different bird species from the Eastern United States (5 1/2 minute nature video photography)

from Navarre's Wild Shots youtube channel

Hear the calls of 50 different bird species from the Eastern United States! In this video you can watch 50 iconic American bird species make their sounds, calls or songs. I have multiple bird calls for some species. Some of these bird calls might be nostalgic if you heard them growing up. All of these bird species can be found in the Eastern US but some can be found in other parts of the United States, Canada, Mexico, Central America or South America. I filmed all of these birds myself over the last few years. Which bird sound was your favorite? Most of these birds were filmed on my Canon R5 C camera, RF 100-500m F/4.5-7.1 lens, and RODE VideoMic Pro+

... around our house in rural Vermont. One I didn't hear is what I've always called the pinball bird. I think it's vireo, and it makes a trill like an old-style pinball machine.

called Merlin Bird ID. Listens for birds near you and identifies them. Has snippits of ther calls you can listen too as well. Found there a lot of birds around that I never imagined. We had a young Osprey (uncommon, reintroduced to the area about 10 years ago) hanging out behind our house for a while last summer. Never would have realized without the app, then I could pick him out in the trees

Don’t have that link handy but I’m sure you can find it. I turn it on especially in spring mornings, to know what birds I’m hearing.

The Merlin site is great!
