The crest is pretty distinctive is this a bird you recognise Lisa?

Yes, I recognised the call. Kind of hard to mistake the creaky gate sound.

Oh, you mean the specific bird. Silly me. It’s one that hangs around the bridge club. I’ll start taking my camera with me to bridge.

Hmmmm. She does have a superb crest - however, I couldn't say if she was one I knew?
