Observation details
As always, the shock of hearing those petanque-ball notes ringing gutturally through the forest was the best and biggest surprise!! I ran back to get my camera, along with the iPad that had the digital Pizzey and Knight with calls, and headed out to hunt down our lands' crown jewel... what a hunt it was. I stole closer and closer, desperate to keep as quiet as possible, and all the while the Rail sang its heart out... I soon realised the sword-grass patch it called home was absolutely and utterly impregnable. At least, I figured, I'd recorded that astonishing, weird call for posterity!!
