Media notes
calling from long grass
Observation details
Heard initially with distant quiet but almost continual insect-like rasping from long grass. Got closer and recordings of call with video on iPhone. 2 birds flew from long grass and seen in spotlight. Facial disc with slightly pinched in appearance. Strong buffy chestnut face and upper chest. Heavily barred primaries and secondaries, more so on upper wing. Fairly dark upper wing. Long trailing legs with big feet. Poor pictures (tho diagnostic) of 2 birds which came relatively close. At least 4 birds present.
