Thanks Ears68. I put the sample up because I wanted to try out some different audio manipulations but I'm please to know which bird makes that call. Thanks for the link too.

I've heard the same bird call several times (at this time of summer) over the years. I think a local ornithologist identified this bird as a visiting member of the Cuckoo family. (Scientific Name: Eudynamys orientalis) The bird has a variety of calls in repitoir and loud calls are not unusual before dawn they tell me (I wear earplugs at night). More info can be found at www.birdsinbackyards.net. Good recording!
