Thanks to all who've responded, this is a great resource!

The consensus seems to be that Bird 2 is an Eastern Yellow Robin. I checked the PK birds app, and lo and behold, the call matched just right. I've added in to the survey.

There's more debate about Bird 1 though. Personally, I'm leaning toward Restless Flycatcher, although it's not perfect. The call itself is very similar to one recorded on Xeno-Canto, just faster. Other suggestions included other types of flycatcher as well as a Golden Whistler. The property has Golden Whistlers all over the place, so that's a possible.

In terms of the surveys though, I'm afraid it's one that got away, as I can't be certain enough.

Thanks again to all who helped!

Bill

Hi all, Bill here

I've done a couple of spring surveys up at the Strathbogie ranges over the
last few days, and there are a few calls I had trouble with. Dead certain
I've heard them before but I just can't dredge the birds up.

Can anyone help me? I've attached two MP3 files - they're very small, but I
don't actually know if the server will distribute them.

Thanks all!
