Here's one for you. What bird makes a loud cricket-type call?
Heard it a couple of times but can't find the bird.
Thanks! |

The Blackbirds can do that. So can the Grackles...I had one hanging around one summer that could imitate the squeaky clothes line sound. |

I've checked both calls on the cornell site. Possibly a grackle, but not sure. I'll look next time I hear it.
