Can anyone tell me the names of any garden birds that have a call in their repertoire that sounds like a raspy football rattle or ratchet? Closest I can find on my RSPB Birds of britain and Ireland CD-ROM is Grasshopper Warbler. Would it be calling in September?

Possibly Wren

Katherine,
Long tailed tit has a ratchety call, there are several in my garden that sound much harsher at this time of year than those on the British Library CD.
