As one who grew up, lived, and birded in the East for 50 years before
moving to Seattle, it's interesting how the Marsh Wren sounds the same, but
the Song Sparrow has a rather different song even tho the 3 parts have the
same structure (and of course the plummage is darker & redder). The
Bewick's of course doesn't sound at all like its eastern counterpart
(Carolina Wren, which must have a dozen songs).
