Observation details
A most wonderful and frustrating sighting. Heard at least twice but I couldn’t figure out where or how far it was (see the awful recording). Started walking towards the direction I thought it was calling from and a few meters later as I looked ahead to spot any movement, had two birds casually scoot away from me within a meter of where my foot landed. Seen very well and for a prolonged time but I froze for the first couple of seconds and later, couldn’t focus on the birds as they disappeared. One bird distinctly larger than the other - female? Waited around for 10 mins or so, but no sign of them.
