Hi all,
The article did talk about "playback of one of these calls..." Presumably
someone did record the "unidentified calls" heard in Nov 2006, and play those
back to elicit the response. I think this was what Peter was asking about -
the details of those recording(s).
Cheers,
John Tongue
Ulverstone, Tas.
