Media notes

Terrible audio. In the field this was a complete mystery. But upon amplifyng the sound I believe it matches the grunt call of Virginia Rail, albeit with the frequencies from 500 to 3000 Hz somehow filtered out by the environment. Speculative playback of the same sound had immediately preceded this recording.
