Mystery sound #1. Can you guess what it is?

September 28, 2012 by Caro&Co 4 Comments

Remember the competitions that ran on your local radio station, back when you were growing up, where you had to try and guess the “mystery sound”?  It was always something bizarre like rice been tipped into a bowl or ice melting or someone taking their dentures out or some such thing.  Needless to say I never won but I loved trying to guess correctly.

A couple of days ago, we heard the most wonderful sound and just had to record it.  So, here’s your chance to have a go at guessing what it is by clicking on the link below.  First correct answer wins a copy of my book “Small Fry Outdoors” (offer open worldwide).  Good luck!

One clue. I am at the farm, it is mid-spring and the grass is lush. Oh and the photo, whilst pretty, bears little relation to the noise. 😉

Mystery Sound!
