    ACP00072io Hi @akalan, Are these birds? Baboons? This is a new sound I've not heard before in the other areas.

    Hi @Snorticus, that sounds like a Long-Tailed Glossy Starling (Lamprotornis caudatus) to me. It's a very common sound to hear in drier woodland 😃

    Great that you recognized the sound! I'd definitely say it was birds but couldn't say much more about it.

    Funny. We have tons of starlings in Texas where I live and when you walk outside when they are flocking it sounds just like this!
