Hi all and Nik too

Ben has recorded some calls, but it can be hard recording calls while also keeping alert for a view! Background noise is a big issue unless one has almost professional level equipment. I was not able to confirm the first recording Ben submitted to eBird, but if there is a Brown Cuckoo-dove to be found, I am still hoping Ben or someone else will manage a photo or clear audio recording. I know of at least one other person who has been hunting the bird over the last week or so!

Simply record the call. Then we know.

Cheers.
