The last couple of days in the middle of Discovery Park has been full of interesting bird

sightings and songs -Red Tail, Merlin, Cooper's Hawk and FOYs for: Purple Martin, BH Grosbeak, W. Tanager, male & female Cowbird, House Wren, Myrtle Warbler, Warbling Vireo &e Cassin's Vireo.


But this a.m. I was absolutely stumped by a nearby call, coming from the leafy crown of a Red Alder. It was a loud chirp of a series of five or six somewhat similar notes, with the group announced about every 30 seconds or so. The voice was a lot like the warning call of a Bewick's Wren only quite a bit louder than the latter but with the same ringing quality. Any suggestions as to what species it might be? I know it is a big ask. Thanks,
