Ding, try doing a better recording. Then play it on your Bosch speakers towards your garden.
Wait and see. Prepare a lot of bawang. a-hik-hik-hik-hik...

I hear these sounds every night around 9 to 11PM and also about an hour or two before daybreak. It's a real cacophony. Are they bird sounds? Should I rush out with a powerful flashlight and try to locate them? Sorry, this was recorded using my phone so quality is bad and you'll have to turn up your PC's volume. You'll hear lots of pop-pop sounds. Ding, No problem, phone recordings are great!! I think whenever you can, or anybody, to record the bird sound with their phones so we can start collecting bird calls. Check this out!!! tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/philippine_bird_photography/files/Nightbird_1.mp3 After filtering out the BG noise (hiss, clicks, and tricycle) I was left with these sounds. Then I made it louder. I think you can play it in your stereo system and see if the creature that made this sound will answer back. From a 1 Mb file it was reduced to more than half after the BG noise were taken out. Sounds like owl chicks!!  asking for food??? just a wild guess Cheers, |

Fantastic, Neon! I tried my best to filter out noise by using just a digital synthesizer on my PC but yours really made the sound crystal. One thing that I noted though. The depth of the sound (i.e. perceived distance of sources) was somewhat muddled. I guess this was the consequence of amplifying the sound, making all the waves about the same amplitude. The sound I recorded was actually froom several points. Each source was a quick pop-pop. Each pop-pop was repeated about 1 to 1.5 seconds apart. But because the (suspected) birds respond to each other, I hear them all around, some far, some near, and the calls overlay against each other. I edited your file to simluate a single bird and it would probably sound like the NightBirdSolo.mp3 file I uploaded in: tech.groups.yahoo.com/group/philippine_bird_photography/files/I'll record again when I hear just a single bird and, if you don't mind, I'd appreciate if you can isolate the sound. I will then carry a portable mp3 player and speakers around the village and play it to see if I can get the creature to expose itself. Luckily, the director in charge of transport in my company asked me to test this new motorized searchlight that magnetically mounts on my car. Really cool gadget. I'll use it to photograph the still-unidentified noisemaker if I can draw it out. I wish I had one of those military-grade see-in-the-dark binoculars. Ding, No problem, phone recordings are great!!
