Promising article about an interesting bird, on good sources, offline sources accepted AGF, no copyvio obvious. - Please go over the prose once more. "Which makes the identification of females and juveniles more difficult." is no proper sentence, and unclear to me even if it was connected to the sentence before. - In the hook, how about including "mimic the calls of numerous other birds and even the non-vocal sound ...!? Something like that, you do it, or I can't review ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 09:52, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
Article has been expanded and is NPOV. I propose ALT1 above as it's clearer for the less ornithologically inclined. Morganfitzp (talk) 19:50, 21 June 2017 (UTC)
