I'd say 'normal' or typical, Jude.
The PK app (Pizzey & Knight Birds of Australia digital edition)
renders the typical call as 'clear, descending "tseeeeuw", often
kicks up at the end', and the second recording of the call (from
Broke NSW) is just that.

because he was using someone else's translation.
'Peeyoooooooooooooooo'
on a descending note several times then a little 'I
don't think so!'
Has
he been overseas and learned a new language, or is this
part of his normal verbalization I've just never heard
before?
