I'm not a knower of birdy calls, but I heard something similar when I took my boy on the field a few hours ago, a sound I didn't recognise at all, maybe it's something around at this time of year? Or maybe Sandra lives on my street  |

I was going to say an owl too lol
if only I had got out of bed earlier.
They sound horrid don't they?!
I spent about 12 years living next to a large wood, I was woken up by loads of different sounds including stags in mating season and the odd car getting burnt out.

Tawny Owl - we hear them most nights here in Cornwall. The Barn Owl makes the traditional 'too-wit too-woo', but you don't hear that very much, as Barn owls are in serious decline. All to do with farmers, no suitable habitat, modern farm buildings no good for nesting, etc. Such a shame, we hear a pair occasionally calling to each other across the valley we live on the side of. Don't think that they are that local though  |

<<< Ok, me boy wanted to go out for a wee>>>
Judging by the circumstances, are you sure it wasn't a Peewit?
