I heard the calling, and kept looking at the trees instead of above me - by the time I twigged, it was hard to get decent photos (see photo 5 for where they were flying at times). The birds moved west from where I saw them, continuing to call, for the next half hour or so. Magnificent. (I have uploaded the call in another sighting.)
