@WTSPsong Thank you for sharing my sparrow song. I’m very fortunate to have heard about it!
Newfoundland singer/songwriter Sherry Ryan has released a song inspired by our research on shifts in the song structure of white-throated sparrows. open.spotify.com/album/6c21cjap…
I am quite excited for @LaurierBiology's very own Dr. @wtspman's #Zoominar next week on bird song variation! @LaurierSci @CSEE_SCEE Listen to the difference between triplet- and doublet-ending songs by these North American white-throated sparrows: youtube.com/watch?v=Z4i3Fy…

We were just about to clutch our pearls at the misidentification of this really handsome white-throat. Fortunately the error was corrected before our emotions got out of control. 😉

Back in the '90s, @wtspman @ken_otter noticed something odd about the sparrows' song in northern BC... The two-decade research project that followed charts a hit new song's viral spread across the country — further & faster than anyone could have imagined. cbc.ca/1.5764958
There is one obvious choice for the Ontario Breeding Bird Atlas logo. We know how we’re voting. Help the white-throated sparrow be the emblem of this great volunteer effort. Voting closes in 2 days. Don’t wait. #ONBirdAtlas3

Fall migration is often accompanied by a minor upswing in singing by white-throated sparrows. Keep an ear out for them if you live in any part of their range, and consider recording them with your smartphone. Recordings can be posted to @Team_eBird or @xenocanto.

Talk about a tweet going viral. This new variant on a traditional bird song spread across Canada among white-throated sparrows — and researchers still don't know why the birds found it so catchy. More at: biodiv.us/2Dor21u

@WTSPsong Neat! Thanks. I missed this the first time for some reason, so I'm glad to see it now.
@WTSPsong @Birder_Katie @Team_eBird Also saw our first WTSP of the season last weekend & they were not singing. As someone who birds mostly by ear, I've noted more than once that first-wave migrants seem less vocal: I'm surprised to see them w/o hearing them first. Always wondered if that was a real pattern.
@EvolutionPirate @WTSPsong I know, such complicated dating dynamics!
@GetToKnowNature @WTSPsong Also these birds are much more interesting than they might at first appear: audubon.org/news/the-fasci… They have been termed "the bird with 4 sexes"!
@steffilazerte @WTSPsong I live just outside of Port Rowan, On. I’ll try :)
@PFWCanada @WTSPsong Awesome! Don't worry if doesn't pan out, it's tricky to get recordings during migration.
I was greeted by the song of a White-throated Sparrow this morning when I walked to my car. Fantastic way to start the day! Love their "pure sweet Canada, Canada, Canada" call. Great photo from Alan Troidl - thank you!
