I've no idea if you can help. There is a bird that has started singing outside my flat and has got my attention. It sings from 4am (not every day) and at about 7pm too (again not daily). I have listened to clips of all the common birds and none of them match. (eg: robin, blackbird etc)
The perculiar thing is this bird sounds like it has about 6 different shorts calls/songs, and it sings them one after the other. Each one it repeats about three times. One even sounded like a "meow" as if it was a cat! :cat:
Its lovely to listen to. I have not seen it but I always hear it. It seems to like the big tree in my front garden next to the street light.
I would love to know what it is. I have recorded it from inside my flat- it's very loud and it wakes me in the morning even though the tree is not that near to my window.
Can anyone suggest an ID? Could it be a parakeet copying other birds? (as we now have them in our area)
Look forward to some replies as have been puzzled for months! :-O[/B]
