Observation details
Many were calling since it was very early. I got very good views (and just a very poor record shot here) of a male King Quail crossing the track in front of me twice this morning. What did interest me is that most of the KQs calling used the call I'm mostly familiar with but they were also constantly making a sound from the grass verge I'm totally unfamiliar with - I recorded it on the phone and it's akin to a heavy breathing sound or the call of a soft wind that can be heard on the recording (the long line that appears intermittently and is placed below 2khz on the chart)
