However, I'm pretty sure that it is none of those that were suggested, as I'm familiar with their songs (except for the Rusty Blackbird, but when I checked out its song online, it is definitely not that). > > Where the sound is coming from, among the cattails at the edge of the marsh, there are sora, pied-billed grebes and red-winged blackbirds nesting or tending young, but I know it's none of them. There is also an American Coot that hangs out nearby, but it is not a coot sound. It appears as though the sound is coming from among the cattails, likely in or close to the water. The last time I heard it I could distinguish 3 or 4 distinct notes, same pitch, close together, but still very raspy and low pitched. > > Lois Jenkins > > > > > No virus found in this incoming message. > Checked by AVG - www.avg.com > Version: 9.0.829 / Virus Database: 271.1.1/2921 - Release Date: 06/06/10 03:25:00 > > --Boundary_(ID_NzEr3pZhl4iGlRXbHDJRxw) Content-type: text/html; CHARSET=US-ASCII Content-transfer-encoding: 7BIT <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN"> <html> <head> <meta content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv="Content-Type"> <title></title> </head> <body bgcolor="#ffffff" text="#000000"> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">What about a grackle - it surely has the rustiest hinge sound of all</font>...!<br> <br> <font face="Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif">Eleanor Lindsay</font><br> <br> On 06/06/2010 10:30 PM, andy dean wrote: <blockquote cite="mid:E1049AC016CE4BF48B40F9F9B8E3BB7F@andyebc3345d2b" type="cite"> <pre wrap="">Did you consider a frog?
