Who is this JazzBird?


It's springtime, and the JazzBird has returned to my back yard. Does anyone know the common name of this remarkably swinging warbler? I love the way it integrates long and short notes and approximates the jazz 4/4 triplet pulse.

This audio clip includes several of its solos spliced together. Kind of like the way Dean Benedetti recorded Charlie Parker solos, only I have provided noise reduction ...

Please listen to the clip and leave a comment if you recognize this mysterious avian hipster.
