What is this noise?

That was my thought NB. The mothership following the light on Rattlesnake.

Well it wasn't here tonight, but I checked out the Northern Woodcock, Spring Peepers, (googled thier sounds) and neither of them make calls anything like this sound. It is NOT ANY type of smoke detector, or car alarm, or any other "electrical" alarm. It was most definitely an animal or bird. Maybe it will be back another night and someone else will hear it. Lot's of strange sound up here, and we are not anywhere near Rattlesnake. It keeps life interesting though!

Eagle, I heard some kind of mating call at about 2 O'Clock in the morning here in Burlington ....I think they followed you to the lake! Kind of like high hooting
followed by low hooting. ("where are you" followed by a "over here") Spring is in the Air!!!

Near the bottom of this page from Amazon are several other suggested books, some with CD's, of the sounds.

We live along the Gunstock River and during the summer with windows open the woods behind the house are full of sounds.

Check this website. Seems lots of folks have recorded and posted animal sounds. The site doesn't seem to be well maintained, (lots of dead links), but maybe you'll get lucky.

There is also this site, easier to navigate.

One last site. You need to d/l the files, but they have lot's of files:

Good Luck!
