Voice

The call of the Black Francolin, described as a loud ringing klik cheek-cheek-cheerakik or "kik-kik-kik"," kwee-kweeeee-kwee" can be heard in the mornings and evenings and almost all day during the breeding season. The male calls standing on a earth mound, bund, rock or a low tree branch and is soon joined by other birds answering from all directions. Similar species: Gray Francolin has grey-brown and buff body, buff instead of black throat, and lacks rufous collar.

Famous quotes containing the word voice:

    The doctrine of equality!... But there exists no more poisonous poison: for it seems to be preached by justice itself, while it is the end of justice.... “Equality for equals, inequality for unequals”Mthat would be the true voice of justice: and, what follows from it, “Never make equal what is unequal.”
    Friedrich Nietzsche (1844–1900)

    Dance with a girl three times, and if you like the light of her eye and the tone of voice with which she, breathless, answers your little questions about horseflesh and music—about affairs masculine and feminine,—then take the leap in the dark.
    Anthony Trollope (1815–1882)

    a voice still so hollow
    That it seems to call out to me from forty years ago,
    When you were all aglow,
    And not the thin ghost that I now frailly follow!
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
