Anybody know enough about ravens to explain this? I think there's a raven mimicking a red tailed hawk shriek in my neighbourhood. I've heard the red tail many times through the years but never saw it. I've even caught it a few times of that birding app that identifies it as a red tail, however it always sounded a little odd to me and the last time I heard it there was some really weird low-pitched noises accompanying it. I've heard the ravens around here make real weird sounds, things I wouldn't think a bird would do. Like mammal-like sounds and mimicking some of the smaller birds in a deep voice. I didn't previously think they would "parrot" things, but I'm rethinking that.

Would post the "red tailed hawk" but don't know where to host .wav files anymore
