A Weka call!
Finally managed to capture the Weka call - this is Ralph.
They generally call early mornings, around lunchtime and in the evening John... not all day long, thank goodness. But I'd rather hear birds calling than loud music anyday :)
Hi, Ralph! You've got my dogs looking all around for what's making that noise!
ReplyDeleteHa Cindy... I sent this video to a couple of friends and they said their dogs went bollistic at the noise coming out of the computer :) :)
ReplyDeleteThey are certainly noisy birds :)
Poor Ralph, squeaky little fellow, now he turned out to be a *banded* rail, again. ;)
ReplyDeleteHope he gets well soon!
Great to hear what he sounds like but I wouldn't want to listen to it all day long ;)
