Black cap warbler / Mönchsgrasmücke (Sylvia atricapilla)
Mönchsgrasmücke Weibchen vom Büro daheim aus gesehen. 2024-08-24 08:08:33 Fehraltorf ISO 1600 Exposure 1/400 Profile Notes: First detections this year on 22 March 2025. Somewhat strange that one of these was singing away near the house in March 2025, but BirdWeather didn't detect it. The angle may have been bad, but I'm surprised. I did see one in 2025 by March. |

Calls:
Call 1: XC560014 matches exactly what BirdID describes: 'Alarm call is a chat-like alternation between short, high-pitched "wit" sounds, and series of hard and dry "teck".' The high-pitched call I heard recently was between 5 and 6 KHz, which could help to distinguish between other birds with a deeper voice. The whooping call is sometimes listed as an alarm call.

Brambling / Bergfink (Fringilla montifringilla)
Bergfink bei Bahnhof Fehraltorf. 2023-02-01 12:50:26 Fehraltorf Exposure 1/1000 Profile Notes: First detections this year on 02 January 2025. Could be a migrant (including 'Kurzstreckenzieher') that only appears here in fall and winter. I wasn't sure if it made sense to hear Brambling/Bergfink here, but I see I photographed one in Fehraltorf in January 2023. Also today 14 November 2024, MerlinSoundID also detected one. But I checked the detection of May 2, 2025, and it was actually a Buchfink that sang - the beginning of the melody of the two sounds similar, but after a few notes they're distinct, so this is a BirdNet mistake. See in relatively nearby places: Pfäffikersee, Zürich Chatzenseen |

There are many different calls, the Marler book describes the 'chink' call as functioning as a mobbing and separation call.

Water pipit / Bergpieper (Anthus spinoletta)
Bergpieper glaube ich. 2023-05-27 09:38:16 Amden Hinder Hoechi Exposure 0.001 Profile Notes: First detections this year on 25 March 2025. Could be a migrant (including 'Kurzstreckenzieher') that only appears here in fall and winter. Unexpected but possible...surprising? See in relatively nearby places: Pfäffikersee, Zürich Chatzenseen |

Whoop very similar to chiffchaff, etc. but starts at an even level, then ascends.
♫ Call recorded in UK, sounds typical to me, and spiced up by a yellowhammer in the background and several other birds XC444002 - Willow Warbler - Phylloscopus trochilus trochilus - call in UK, with yellowhammer in background. Source: XENOCANTO

Yellowhammer / Goldammer (Emberiza citrinella)
![]() The most common yellowhammer dialects shown at the yellowhammers.net project - so cool! Most Swiss dialects shown on their map are XlB. In my own recordings so far, I hear (and on the sonograms see) a pause after the initial phrase rather than a higher note. I'd like to follow that further.
