Hi Jos=E9,

Yes, I'm quite sure that xeno-canto is correct here. I know these alarm cal=
ls also from my own experience. Nightingales are very common here in German=
y, even in the city of Berlin where I live. In spring you can find them sin=
ging in almost every park. So, there is really no doubt.

Even the Wikipedia article on the Nightingale says that "it has a frog-like=
 alarm call". See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nightingale

Regards,
Raimund
