Song: Extremely varied song of short, clear whistled or warbling phrases and mewing notes with some repetition. Song tends to be given at a leisurely, almost vireo-like pace and may be difficult to differentiate from Ocelated or Curve-billed Thrasher's. Call notes are also variable may include, "chuk" notes, mewing "meeahr" calls or sharp "pli-tik" notes.
