American Robin: Alarm call is a single high, thin, descending whistle; similar to Cedar Waxwing but longer, more descending, and not mixed with other calls. • Extended songs in caroling rhythm with short sets of separate phrases broken by distinct pauses; each set commonly ends in a higher, more trilled phrase. Tanager, grosbeak, and vireo songs usually shorter. Cheer-up, cheerily, cheer-up, cheerily, cheer-up, cheer-up, cheerily.
