I'm sure the single squawk in the middle is still the wattlebird and yes the other could be a currawong. We have them here only rarely, so I'm not familiar with all the variations of the call.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8200454995887308398.post-39736405112666261332014-08-15T23:34:45.802+10:002014-08-15T23:34:45.802+10:00Sorry, I have no idea.

Quite a bit larger than the black Currawong and tends to hang from the side of trees pealing off chunks of bark looking for grubs I expect. I haven't heard its call yet though maybe it would be similar to the normal Currawong song.<br /><br />The other is a speckled bird, bigger than a Wattle and with a straight beak, that I haven't yet identified but it gives a single squawk like that near the middle of the video. <br /><br />At the beginning is what sounds like a distressed cow type creature :)<br />Bernie Edwardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12387970457335825568noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8200454995887308398.post-86865404089435127062014-08-15T20:48:23.049+10:002014-08-15T20:48:23.049+10:00Nice view!.
