The notes of (94), heard only occasionally, are reminiscent of calls in 

 the South. The opening sounds, at three quavers a second, were like the 

 sound of a bell through the horn of a gramophone ; they were followed 

 by the common call at a higher pitch. In (95), again, the notes of the chord 

 are sounded. It was sung once only, after flight, and after a second flight 

 the variation (95a). The notes were full flute notes, with regular vocaliza- 

 tion, aw in the low notes, e of " net " in the medium, and ee of " sweet *'
