It cannot be a snowplough, not in your neck of the wood.

No. As a matter of fact, if the weather were cold you definitely wouldn't hear this noise.

I'll give another clue now, and in eight or ten hours I'll post an "extended mix" of the recording, which together should (hopefully) give it away. The shortened version I've already posted features only one species...

Is it a type of bird?

Sorry, no. At least you're thinking in terms of things living...

I sort of think I made it a little too hard, therefore I'll post the 'extended mix' which I'm sure will give it away:

Kaat likes it, Rev thanked me for it, but neither have made a guess...
...should I be thinking in terms of what to record for my next sound?

That's probably a good idea, because no one else has any idea to what that is.

The extended version didn't help where there's two different species?

It didn't help me unfortunately. Maybe because I'm more of an indoors type person.

Well, I had a couple of ideas yesterday, opportunity is all I need now. I guess I have a week after my first post of the sound, as per Kaat's instructions in the rules...

At 10:15pm (my time) the week will be up, and I'll hopefully have another sound ready to post for y'all to guess, unless someone manages to guess what the current one is.

Sowwy General, I have no clue what so ever 
Last guess, was it your neighbor and you walking on wooden shoes?

I'm not really surprised nobody guessed the sound listening to the original short version of the recording, but when you hear the extended mix, surely you can hear the second species of FROG right at the beginning of the recording. Whilst I'm not totally sure what species that one is (a common eastern froglet, I think), the one that has a clicking call is a striped marsh frog. My problem now is coming up with another sound. I have an idea or two, hopefully tomorrow morning I'll be able to record something before I go home from werk...

Wait THAT was a frog!? I've never heard a frog sound like that before. Dammit General! :laugh:
