You only need to look skyward for a short time at the moment to see and hear Redwings (Turdus iliacus) flying over as they migrate from northern and eastern Europe. Listen out for the drawn out "tsuweeeep" flight call, which may be heard day or night.
The flight call and more details can be found here:

Select Redwing from thelist down the left-hand side of the screen.
Once familier with the flight call (ignore the chattering call as this is seldom heard in flight) stand outside after dark and you are likely to hear it within a short time
