[Tweeters] Raven making odd clicking call

[Gary Bletsch]

​Dear Tweeters,

Today, the fifth of March, a Common Raven was flying around the fields by the parking area at the Samish West Ninety. The Raven was making a call that I don't remember ever hearing before. It was a sort of clicking call. At first, I thought I'd found "something good," but was surprised when the Raven flew by me, then circled a few times, making this odd call. I transcribed it as "Chickita-chickita-chickatik." Each utterance lasted about a second and a half.

I took a look at the recordings on Xenocanto, but for some reason, my computer decided that I won't be listening to any recordings, so I decided not to deal with that particular tech nightmare. and left it at that!

Are any Tweeters familiar with such a clicking call of Common Ravens?

Yours truly,

Gary Bletsch
