Song & Call Comparison

Eurasian Wren

노래

Extraordinarily loud for its tiny size: a rapid, powerful stream of trills, buzzes, and churring phrases. One of Europe's loudest songs by volume relative to body weight.

House Sparrow

노래

Monotonous series of chirping 'cheep' and 'chirrup' notes. Male gives 'chilp' song repeatedly. Flocks produce constant chirping chatter. No melodic song; purely functional calls.

About These Birds

Eurasian Wren

굴뚝새는 유럽에서 가장 작은 새 중 하나이지만 놀랍도록 큰 소리로 노래한다. 몸무게 10g 미만이지만 노래 소리는 500m 이상 퍼진다. 추운 날에는 집단으로 모여 체온을 유지한다.

House Sparrow

집참새는 아마도 세계에서 인간과 함께 가장 성공적인 새일 것이다. 처음에는 중동에서 기원했지만 인간의 교역로와 정착지를 따라 전 세계로 퍼졌다. 씨앗, 곤충, 음식물 쓰레기를 먹는 기회주의적 잡식성이다.
