Black-capped chickadee - Mesange a tete noire.flac

South Stormont, Ontario, Canada

A 30s sound clip of chickadees calling one another (or so it seems). You can hear the wing flapping of a bird nearby, as it approached me. Equipment used : Sony Minidisc (MZ NHF-800), binaural mics + preamp (www.visivoxtechnologies.com). Apparently, black-capped chickadees produce one of the most complex calls of the animal world! In fact, it is believed that they produce a warning call, then another call to identify themselves. For more info, google these keywords together : "chickadee complex call". Enjoy!

Thank you for this sound. It'll work great with an iPhone clock I'm making.

I download this file for a event sound on my computer, but when I go to associate it with an event, it isn't there. How do I make this work?
Thank you,
Lorraine
