    Anybody know enough about ravens to explain this? I think there’s a raven mimicking a red tailed hawk shriek in my neighbourhood. I’ve heard the red tail many times through the years but never saw it. I’ve even caught it a few times of that birding app that identifies it as a red tail, however it always sounded a little odd to me and the last time I heard it there was some really weird low-pitched noises accompanying it. I’ve heard the ravens around here make real weird sounds, things I wouldn’t think a bird would do. Like mammal-like sounds and mimicking some of the smaller birds in a deep voice. I didn’t previously think they would “parrot” things, but I’m rethinking that.

    Would post the “red tailed hawk” but don’t know where to host .wav files anymore






  • Here’s something to think about that might help. Some of those A/B tests are red herrings! They’ll swap a clear lens in and out, the result being both the same. Or, they’ll swap the one you selected last from the “A” position and use it as “B” instead! All in an effort to throw you off their scent. Then, they’ll even test you against the ones you already tested against!
