It is now 23:40 as I write this. I was just outside in the yard and could =
hear a weeert type of noise. Something like the diving of a bird maybe. T=
his was followed by a whistle type noise from a bird. Off to the right the=
re was a corresponding whistle type call. I would hear the diving noise ag=
ain and then a whistle type call and a responding call from further away. =
There then would be a response from a third bird. This sequence of events =
kept occuring with sometimes the whistle sounding far away and other times =
very close to me. Do common nighthawks have a whistle type bird call? I've=
heard their call, but this is the only thing I can think of that might be =
making this type of noise. I know the penting call of the American woodcoc=
k so it defintely was not that. I'm baffled as this is the first time I've=
heard this on the basis of all of the night calls that I've listened to in=
respects to birds.
