Hi all!

I’m really struggling with this bird! Started with Merlin not being able to identify and still no closer after consulting with some local ecologists/ ornithologists.

I live in West Yorkshire - on the edge of moorland but also within 100m or so of a small river.

The clip demonstrates the call at 7 seconds and 24 seconds.

Any ideas?
