"Cheeseburguer", "potato chips", that has to be the most American interpretation of bird singing in History 😂
-
The mourning dove always makes me feel nostalgia. Takes me back to when I was small 🕊️
-
What most people do not realize is that a Mockingbird never repeats the same song, they constantly change their song and it's mesmerizing to listen to.
-
It's amazing how some of these sounds can bring you right back to where you were in a forest or a specific season. Crows are so fall for me.
-
my key for blue jays is "does it sound like a crow but more annoying? its a blue jay"
-
I'm SO glad that you said the Cardinal sounds like purdy purdy purdy! When I was little I'd walk outside and say "thank you" to the bird telling me I looked purdy that day. I still occasionally do it ☺️ LOL
-
I always associate the mourning dove’s call with awkwardness. When I was a kid whenever we played outside with other kids if something happened that resulted in an awkward silence such as someone saying something mean, breaking something, etc almost on cue during the middle of the silence a mourning dove call would happen.
-
I just learned that the owl sound I hear every day is actually a mourning dove, and my mind is blown 🤯 Thank you!
-
I have a mockingbird in my backyard and he/she always sits on the same tree everyday and shows me what bird noises they picked up
-
My cat enjoyed this video.
-
My husband moved to Illinois from California and kept asking me who the "cheeseburger bird" was 😂 thank you for helping us figure out the mystery!
-
Although the Mourning Dove is labeled as the "most nostalgic" bird in the U.S., in my opinion, I think it's the American Robin for me. I've lived in Central New York my whole entire life and I always heard the American Robin in the morning especially when getting ready for school and waiting for the bus. It's such a bittersweet sound and feeling for me.
-
The mourning dove calls always stick in my brain for some reason! Since i was little, it was the most memorable for me. I never knew what bird made this sound. We have many pigeons in my area (big city) so i always assumed it was some breed of pigeon 😂 im happy to learn this. Thank you.
-
So many of these remind me of my childhood playing on the street or hiking with friends. Simpler times man.
-
I hear all de sounds in de morning. It's so beautiful. My husband build an bird eiland in front of are acres. Front of the house. We build on the back last year big balcony. They come everyday to sit on the railing and sing take peanuts. And all other food. It's so beautiful to see them coming and eat in house hanging on windows. God made nature so beautiful.
-
My grandma (who was an avid birdwatcher) taught me that a Chickadee's two-note call is "Fee-Bee." She also said that they would change their call if the weather was going to get bad.
-
I’ve thought the mourning dove was an owl my entire life!
-
When my dad was alive he would teach me all sorts of the bird calls. Now that he’s been gone 10 years I’ve forgotten most of them. I was just laying in bed listening to a mourning dove, thinking it was a dove, but not sure. Now that I’m to have a child in July, it suddenly became important to learn these again. Thanks for the vid!

It's been 43 yrs since I took a class on ornithology in the Adirondack Mountains. This brought back such good memories. Thank you.
