I've found a number of interesting sounds made by common species that I hadn't heard previously. Of course, the source is more than likely something expected.

While outside, I heard a call note that didn’t match any nocturnal birds I’m familiar with. It was a singular, falsetto toned sound, repeated every 10 seconds or so. Once upon a time, I had a set of 33 rpm records titled ‘A Field Guide to Bird Songs’. Being a few decades beyond possessing a functioning turntable, I don’t think I’m going to ID the sound with that resource. There are bird songs on line, but I suspect I would have trouble selecting search terms that would locate this bird.
