Melissa,
I have heard a few different individual Winter Wrens sing this
winter. For instance I have found them on 4 out of 5 CBCs so far.
Mostly, I hear abbreviated versions, lasting about a quarter to a
half as long as the typical summer song. I seem to have more luck
finding this species this winter than I typically do, so I'm not sure
if the amount of singing I hear is typical, but I believe it to be.
