Hello Ann,
Welcome to Australia and I hope you enjoy the sight and sounds of all our
beautiful birds while you are here.
I agree with David, I'm inclined towards a Grey Butcherbird. Interestingly
enough, early morning Grey Butcherbird song causes more queries to my website
than any other bird. Must be the type of sound that penetrates the general
ambient noise well.
Have a listen on my sound page
www.graemechapman.com.au/library/sounds.php?c=46%p=229. The second and third
examples on that page have the sort of quality I'm referring to. They are
unlikely to be exactly the same as what you have heard - the song of Grey
Butcherbirds varies so much between individuals and from region to region that
one day, I'm sure it will be the subject of a PhD study!!
Regards
Graeme Chapman
