Number one sounds like you're describing the Wonga Pigeon's call.

The second, I don't know.

I was on Wark's Road today and I heard two calls that are driving me nuts (I have heard them in previous years, only now I'm making a big effort to identify all the calls I hear).

1. Is a 'Rep, Rep, Rep' call that goes on and on (after a while it sounds like a dog barking);

2 Is another repetitive call, two syllables, 'e-rr, e-rr, e-rr', almost sounds like a frog.

Both from the canopy of Brindabella forests, both heard at both lower Wark's Road (junction with Blundell's Creek) and upper Wark's Road (junction with Bendora Road).

Thanks
