Have this occasional bird call in the neighbourhood.

I think it's a Bellbird but online recordings don't seem to match.

Sounds like a more melodious low battery smoke alarm!

That said, I was amazed how loud Bellbirds were when I was in Hanmer Springs recently, considerably louder than their size suggested.

Actually sounds like a Rosella (well among the other insane noises it makes).

It's clearly the call of the There-was-a-problem-playing-this-audio-file Bird.
