Subject: [canberrabirds] Bird call identification required
Can anyone help me
identify a bird with a deepish and loud call that sounds like 'ooo-wee'
(apologies in advance for bad interpretations) and is repeated over and
over, sometimes ascending in pitch and increasing in speed?
I'm sorry that I
can't identify the colour or shape of the bird that the call is coming
from - it was very well hidden in a very tall pine and too high up for me to
see.
I'm at work at the
moment so don't have either binoculars or a field book to reference.
