  The cawing sounds of a Stellar's Jay's call.

Spectrogram of Steller's jay. Spectrograms are graphs that visualize sounds. The brightness of the colors shows sounds’ amplitude (loudness) across different frequencies (pitches), shown from bottom to top, and over time, from left to right. This spectrogram visualizes the jay's series of harsh, high-pitched squawks
