The Dreaded No-See-Deer Bird

[DEDDY]

I hear that bird a lot in middle TN

 

[Lt.Dan]

I've seen them on stand.

Maybe I'm the only one but I like to bird watch on stand. I could see myself joining a birdwatching club one day.

Get the Merlin app. It's great

 

[WilcoKen]

I don't think I've ever heard that one's song before.

It's pretty rare I hear it. It looks like they winter here.

 

[poorhunter]

I thought for sure you were talking about a cardinal.

 

[fatboy]

The 1 2 3 4 5555 is the cadence of a mourning dove.

 

[backyardtndeer]

We do have these around, and here them from time to time, but never paid attention to deer activity when they were singing their song.

 

[DayDay]

Holy crap it worked. It is the song of a White Throated Sparrow!

How did you narrow it down with the ap at night? I started using that ap last spring and really like it.

Be wary of those cardinals....I have had two close relatives that posted on Facebook about a cardinal visiting them in window or on porch for awhile....then within two days they are unexpectedly dead.

I had a cardinal that was coming to a window at the house and pecking on the window when it would see its reflection. It was very annoying and would wake up the baby. The only death that came though was the cardinal when I introduced it to my .410
