Remarks from the Recordist

Bird was singing from a mixed riparian woodland, partially up a slope of douglas fir and California bay trees. We never saw that bird, but it sounded like it was at mid-height, not up in the canopy. Just downslope was more riparian trees, including white alder, willow, and box elder. The bird gave a typical grosbeak introduction, and transitioned into what sounded almost like a Northern Cardinal. We assumed it was either a Black-headed or Rose-breasted Grosbeak, with the song sounding a bit unusual for either but more like a RBGR.
