From my journal: “I heard the call - a cross between a metal wrasp and a frog. He was watching me from a top a rock. I saw him in the distance, then he sauntered out-of-sight. I didn’t see him when I later crested a hill, but suddenly there he was, only 10 feet away! Nervous, he ‘wrasped’ a few times, then sauntered away again ‘Pgrh-Pgrh-Pgrh-Pgrh’.”
