Summary

Description
English: :This is the last section of a 3 minute recording, during which the bird was calling most of the time. It continued after I stopped recording.
A photo was taken. Bird (male) was about 2 m above my head on a dead twig that looked as if the bark had been removed - the wood looked almost polished.
Habitat: open woodland, on the edge of a more heavily wooded escarpment.
Equipment: Olympus LS7, internal microphones. 48kHz wav file.
Background: there is white noise from electronics and breeze in the leaves. The pulse at 7kHz, at 200ms intervals was from an insect, and is present throughout the recording.
As I was recording, I initially noticed only the warbling tones, but later realised the 8 to 9 kHz bursts, that to my old ears sounded just like clicks, were also associated. It was only in the sonograms that it became evident that each click consists of two bursts about 40ms apart.
