A female Koel was flying around near my house this morning and was seriously confronted by a RWB.  What caught my eye, or actually ear, was its repeated call - not just when it was in conflict with the RWB.  It was not the common kek kek kek, but something more like short squawks which went on and on.

I am not familiar with this sound or when a female makes that sound rather then the usual one.

Any enlightenment?
