High, squeaky repetitive song is loud but often difficult to locate in high branches.Crimson sunbird do not sing loudly and resonantly like some other birds. Instead, they make soft and rhythmic sounds with many different tones while communicating with each other and defining their territory. This sound can be described as a soft chirp, similar to the call of a red-tailed hummingbird.
