Yes excellent recording Rob!

Thankfully you don't seem to suffer too much from 'noise', we always have a 
'roar' of traffic around here.

Still hopefully next week we will be away to North Norfolk and I am hoping it 
will be a lot quieter!

Thanks John and Curt! A Wood Thrush don't you think?  The last few 
years we've enjoyed them in our hollow arriving in early May. I heard 
four calling at dusk a few evenings ago. This recording was around 
6:30 in the morning, so its not an official "dawn chorus."  Despite 
the distinct vocal qualities, I still can't figure out what species 
the mid-way visitors might be. They do seem to be smallish now that 
you mention it.  Rob D.
