I just spoke to my friend Lynn Havsall and she suggested a Townsend's
Warbler. The pattern was the same as its sister species, the Black-throated
Green out east, but without the buzzy quality. I now remember hearing one
before with the Black-throated Green pattern but without the buzzy quality.
That one was a Townsend's. I'm now betting that that's what it was.

Subject: who says seee seee su su sueee? (Lincoln Park Seattle)


In Lincoln Park in Seattle at 9am this morning I heard a high, thin, clear
and fairly weak "seee seee su su sueee" the "seee"'s higher pitched and the
"su"'s lower. The final "eee" at the end was the same pitch as the first
"seee". It sounded very warbler-like. I couldn't get a look at it. It was
in mixed forest of hemlock, douglas fir, madrone and red alder among others
apparantly high in the trees. Any thoughts?
