Hello, am completely new to this site but have been watching birds for about 70 years. I posed my question on the "main" forum and it was suggested I try here. Recently moved from the East Coast. I live overlooking Clear Lake and In the early morning, I hear a low bubbly sound from a tree and it is immediately answered. I have listened to a brown-headed cowbird, a barn owl, etc (on an Internet site) but no luck! It sounds a little like a roller canary sound, deep, gurgily (is that a word?) -- like water running over stones in a brook -- very soft, like gargling. Have heard it for about 10 days now, early, but never later in the day. It fascinates and frustrates me. Any suggestions? Thanks.
