Rose Breasted Grosbeak Pheucticus ludovicianus Camden State Park May 19, 2016


Rose-breasted Grosbeak
Pheucticus ludovicianus

Voice: Song is a slow, whistled warble, sort of robinlike but slightly husky in quality, without gurgling notes; pace steady and slow. Callis a sharp, squeaky iik like sneakers on a gym floor. Flight call a soft, wheezy wheek; thrushlike, with airy quality (unlike husky trumpet sound of the Baltimore Oriole).
