What does the White-eyed vireo sound like?

The recordings here are labelled as white-eyed vireo. Listen for differences in rhythm, pitch and repetition – the spectrum display makes it easy to see whether a sound is a pure whistle (a thin line), a harsh call (a broad band) or a trill (rapid repeated marks).
