I'm hearing it for most of the notes, but mostly when two are calling at once. 
No point arguing that it's Spinifex Pigeon though, if they normally aren't 
found anywhere near there.

I found this Crested Pigeon recording which sounds more like what I'm hearing: 
http://www.xeno-canto.org/87426. "Trill" is probably the wrong word.

There are no Spinifex Pigeon calls at all on Xeno Canto.
