Swamphen Calls - Funny grunts & squealing sounds from an Australasian Swamphen

The sounds of an Australasian Swamphen (aka Purple Swamphen) making comical grunts & squealing calls. This species makes a range of calls including strange grunts, thumps, squeaks, shrieks and squeals and can often be heard calling at night. The Australasian Swamphen (Porphyrio melanotus) sounds in this video were recorded by a wetland at night in Wollemi National park, NSW, Australia.
