Knowing that there are some with poetic inclinations within the Birding-Aus
subscriber base, I wonder if anyone has a suggestion for the following:

An author friend has asked for some advice as to how to describe the
"glugging water sound" of the Pheasant Coucal in a less prosaic way (and
without resorting to a plethora of words).

Many thanks

Philip
