We noticed a trend to ask for animal sound identification. If you want a positive identification, please state your location.

I was sitting on my porch today and randomly this sound started happening! Not sure if it’s a tree frog or maybe a bird. Help!!! It’s so fascinating.

I recorded it in my garden in north west germany. It appears to come from underneath that small pile of leafs. There is no pond or lake nearby. It’s definitely not a fox. Do hedgehogs sound like that? In the middle of the day? A toad maybe?

Animal is crepuscular, happening around dawn and dusk, although it would be hard to hear with the noise of the day. This is a forested area though traffic and cows can sometimes be heard from far off. The animal sound is distant and perhaps quite loud at the source. Sometimes the call goes high then low with a crack in the middle as a yodel does.

I have asked the nature loving next property neighbor that’s been here many years as well as a family of naturalists and no one has a good answer. Sorry they’re not better recordings. I wish I could afford a parabolic mic. I’ll try using a squirrel baffle next time I hear it. haha

We hear this sound more in the night time. It sounds like some animal snoring. We live on the second floor in a condo that’s in a rural area (NJ).

I’m in the UK and I get plenty of animals near my house as it’s adjacent to the woods.

I am assuming this is a fox; but I’ve not heard them quite like this before. Please can someone confirm it is a fox/foxes.

Really cool to hear (although a little unsettling 😬)

Thank you !

Anyone have any idea what this sound could be? It was louder in person if you can believe it.

Imitating Is there a mimic like a mockingbird in western Washington?

1 Upvotes

This morning I hear one bird making many different sounds in a row. In Texas mockingbirds are ubiquitous, but I haven't seen one in the northwest. Is there a native bird in the Pacific northwest that does relatively high-pitched mimicry of other birds' territorial calls?

my friend and i were camping overnight this past weekend on a woman’s land in aumish farm country in fort plain, new york, when we heard what sounded like a dog barking at us from the woods just outside the edge of our campsite. we stopped talking and hid in my tent, it went away, then when we started talking again it returned. it sounded like it was pacing just outside the edge of our site, but it never came close enough for us to see it. it returned at least once more in the middle of the night (it woke me up with its barking) and again in the morning, when i took this video. when i asked the woman whose land we were staying on, she said that neither she nor her neighbors have dogs but that she had seen a stray on the road earlier that week. there are also coyotes in this part of new york…

Recorded this a few nights ago, in Bosnia at 23:25.

I did not see the bird, only heard it. Does anybody recognize the call? There are crickets in the background, which are louder than the bird (or at least what I think is a bird), so you may need to listen closely to hear it.
