Voice - The Western Meadowlark whistles a bubbling, melodious song with two parts, a few clear notes followed by a jumble of rougher notes. It has been described as sounding like "hip, hip, hurrah! boys; three cheers!", "oh, yes, I am a pretty little bird", or "u-tah's a pretty place". The call is a low, sharp "chuck" and usually a rattle call is given in flight.
