Chiming Wedgebill

Psophodes occidentalis (Mathews, GM 1912)

The chiming wedgebill, sometimes referred to as chiming whipbird is a species of bird in the family Psophodidae. It is endemic to Australia. The chiming wedgebill and chirruping wedgebill were considered a single species until as late as 1973, when they were separated due to marked differences in their calls. Source: Wikipedia
