A difficult to watch and image warbler, as usually high in the canopy or in dense shade. On this day was in full song and I manged to get some recordings. The song appears to be a ‘jumble’ of notes, going up and down, often rendered from high in the canopy in ‘full throttle’. For a small bird, the high frequency song is loud and carries far. The duration of song is often 4 seconds but can be only 1-2 seconds at times. It is repeated quickly with only a 1-2 second pause in between songs. I did not hear any answering calls but, at the start of the start of the recording, a White-tailed Robin (Myiomela leucura leucura) can be heard three times. The sonogram and waveform show the highly complex nature of the song and a lot of information is being conveyed at different frequencies. There is a stronger baseline component at 3-7kHz but the notes go up to 19kHz in a feathery pattern. There is no ‘jumble’ here at all; the bird is a one person symphony.
