As I wander in the timber here in the mountains late May through August I here this bird singing "heebe jeebe jeebe . Drives me nuts to see one and learn what it is called ! I do see some Juncos in the woods but not singing ! In conifers at 4500 to 6000 feet . Any ideas ?

Sounds like Junco's, more like Beebeebeebeeb.

I think you were hearing juncos too. I have some juncos here all year and huge numbers during parts of the Fall and Winter.



Keith

tufted titmouse? orr black capped chicadee?

Sounds like a bird I always heard called a pinon squawker.

Kinda blue gray color. like crows they seem to travel in small groups.

Download an app called Merlin. It identifies birds by sound.

Sassquarsh. They don't cotton to bein seen.
(Yes. That is how They spell it and pronounce it.)

Yes, get the app. It’s Free

is this it. things will follow you around squaking like that

Keith and Danny I don't think it is those . I did see one Chickadee near this sound . I am familiar with their early spring song and it could be a new one for later . I will get the Merlin app . Thanks to you all .

I got the app and it is great .Still unknown will report soon .

Tufted Titmouse.We have them at our feeders.They do sound like Heebe,,,,Heebe,,Jeebe.

Listen to the first song recording on this page. Is that it?

Yup.Years ago before I figured out what they were,,,I even called them "heebe,,,,jeebe birds". That's why I knew right away what the OP was referring to.

Those are black eyed juncos, not titmouse.

What is?

Yote trapper and upstate ,no that is not the right sound . The habitat is lodgepole pine ,doug fir and ponderosa pine ,the bird obviously likes the trees as I have never heard it in the openings . Thanks for helping . I listened to every common bird song on merlin that I see in this area and so far ------ .We are wood cutting for 2 days late this week so I will report .
