This Marsh Wren (Cistothorus palustris) talks up a storm as he forages through the weeds at the South edge of Peck's Lake [Arizona]. I walked along side him for twenty minutes, and he never stopped talking! He was joined later by two others in his family. This sample is large, but it's still only 17 seconds from several minutes' vocalization.
