Close, Ben. I have something similar with Arctic foxes in the archive.
Problem is that the duration of the sound on freesound is a bit longer
than the sample I've recorded the other night...a sound that was also
much more regular in its repetition. That's what makes me hesitate
with a final positive. Also, in the longer clip I recorded, the
critter, whatever it is, changes spatial position and proximity over a
relative short period of time leaving the impression that it literally
flew. But who knows...?
