The Noisy Miner is a bold and curious bird. This is the sound of a juvenile trying to attract its parent for feeding. Miners are identified by a mostly grey body and black crown and cheeks. The bill is yellow, as are the legs and the area behind the eye. The name is well suited as the loud calls - loud 'pwee pwee pwee' and a piping 'pee pee pee' when alarmed are noisy and repeated by the whole colony. This one woke me up at about 5:55 am...so in revenge I recorded it :) Recording Chain: Rode NT4 (stereo microphone in blimp) - Sound Devices Mix Pre (Mic preamp) - Edirol R-09 (16 bit 44.1 kHz).
