I remember having heard one, one of the past years , that sounded like a trill or whistle or ringing, like you described....did a little looking. it might be a tufted titmouse i'm hearing outside. i can't see it though cuz it would blend with the brush and trees across the street.
"Several birds are famous for calls that sound surprisingly like a telephone ringing or electronic tone. Here are a few common possibilities in the U.S.it's weird cuz every so often i keep hearing what sounds like a bird that's call sounds almost like a telephone ringing. i can hear it but can't see it in the tree. i don't think i've ever heard a bird call like that before in kansas. i wonder if we have a different breed of bird here for some reason.
odds are those wouldn't be in kansas though. i am pretty sure it's that tufted titmouse. i've never heard that call before and last time i heard it was a couple weeks ago and couldn't identify it then either. yesterday i stepped out onto the porch to try to listen to see where it was coming from. pretty sure it was across the street in the neighbors trees. maybe one of these times i'll luck out and open the door and see it on the porch like i do with the other birds."Several birds are famous for calls that sound surprisingly like a telephone ringing or electronic tone. Here are a few common possibilities in the U.S.
1. Northern Cardinal
2. Carolina Wren
- One of the most common âphone-ringâ sounding birds.
- Their call can sound like a clear, repeating âcheer-cheer-cheerâ or âbirdy-birdyâ that some people hear as an old phone ringtone.
- Cardinals are very common in Pennsylvania year-round, so this is a strong candidate.
- Often heard early morning or near feeders.
3. Gray Catbird
- Loud, ringing âteakettle-teakettle-teakettle!â call.
- Very bright and metallic, sometimes mistaken for alarms or ringtones.
- Common around houses, shrubs, and garages.
4. Brownâheaded Cowbird
- Usually makes a cat-like meow, but it also mimics mechanical sounds including phone-like ringing or beeps.
- Their bubbling call can sound oddly electronic or ringing to some people."
