| African Darter - Anhinga rufa | Rolf A. de By | 2013-11-02 | Monte Christo, Joe's place, Khomas (Namibia) (1400 m) | mechanical taking-off sounds - I know, this is cheating. The sound is of a bird sitting on a stick just above the water level, and as I am getting closer, it takes off, with the typical sound of a clumsy water bird. What you hear is wings and wings slapping on the water. Observe: this is apparently the first recording of Striated Heron (calls) for the African mainland. bird-seen:yes playback-used:no |
