Hi, I am new to the Bird Forum but I would love to know what bird in my garden finishes its little song with a distinct 'wolf whistle'.
It somtimes sings all day long.I live in Surrey...England.

Hi The Lord,

A warm welcome to BirdForum from all the Moderators and Admin. Glad to have you on board :t:

Starlings have a very variable song so LB could well be right.

I would guess starling as well. They tend to mimic sounds that they've heard and can sometimes be very realistic.

Welcome to Birdforum.

Thanks for helping me but none of these are right (i think).
The wolf whisle bit of the tune is quick and quite high pitched but very distint as well.
