Yes a nice recording. 2 Comments.
After hearing this one the system plays another set of bird sounds, a medley I think but I don’t recognise the sounds (one is likely a Sacred Kingfisher). Is
that from New Zealand? .......... Oh I think it is explained there..........
When I was in Philippines earlier this year, at 2 bush sites I heard a sound just like that call of a Crescent Honeyeater. It wasn’t of course, as they are
not there. I was unable to view the bird. I really don’t know what it could be or how to find out……

Subject: [canberrabirds] Another ANBG winter visitor (audio and video) - Cresent Honeyeater
Had a look for that robin this morning (16 Aug 2108) was not in luck. However, came across another classic winter visitor - Cresent Honeyeaters. I have some video shot in difficult light but got better Audio, that bird in question stayed
hidden - you can hear its classic 'ee-gypt' call. They were 'Up the back' between sections 53 and 46 and moving about a lot.
