I've put a pheasant call on my webpage with a site pic:

It calls for nearly 8 minutes. I was recording at a low level as
usual but the pheasant was very close and hit the limiter a few times.
I tried compressing the recording but it sounded bad so the "normal"
birdsong is quiet.

Mind you, they haven't got their spring voices yet but I've got a
blackbird which has picked up a phone ringtone. Had me doubling back
to the house a couple of times. Hope to get it closer soon but I'm
sure it's the bird I called "Intel" last year. The two frequencies it
uses are 1500Hz amd 2500Hz.
