David's right - not the response that I was wanting...

The observation was at Wee Jasper, about 1 hr (drive) west of Canberra. Have not seen or heard any gliders and am not expecting flying foxes (have seen some microbats and heard mastiff bats).

What this means is I am left baffled as to what the answer to the Barking Owl 'screaming woman' call was. The only other nightbirds to call that night were White-throated Nightjar (at around the same time) and Owlet-nightjar very early in the night (the answer was quite dissimilar to an Owlet-nightjar's normal call).

One to stick in the unsolved box?

Paul
