Comments about the song and sounds of the Cerulean Warbler:  Song:  "zray-zray-zray-diddle-lee-dee."  The Cerulean Warblers I saw along the Delaware looked grayer than Audubon's drawing.  Also, in late April families of Ceruleans combed the leafless branches of mature maples while making a very high-pitched contact call.
