hearing one rumble at you in the wild is even better and rather unsettling! (we
live in FNQ and my husband's documented about 50 cassowaries living quite near
us, they seem to like him).
thanks for the sounds - I am always impressed by the tiny mike on my iphone
too, for when I've forgotten to bring the sound recorder.

Subject: Southern Cassowary - Ultra low frequency sound
The Southern Cassowary's call is apparently the lowest frequency known
sound from any bird (if you can think of another contender I'd be
interested to hear about it).
I recorded this sample from a captive bird in a wildlife park near
Sydney - all I had on hand was my Canon DSLR and this is the resulting
audio file, not great but I was happy that the miniature mic even picked
it up. Make sure you have decent speakers or headphones for this one -

Hearing the call close up is incredible - sounds more like an large
mammal than a bird!
