plover and mopoke by night...

I have never heard a plover sing by night. I have only heard a mopoke (southern boobook owl). However, it is many months since last I heard one. A mopoke's call by night, to me, almost sounds like a quietly forlorn night bell. https://t.co/GxUrDPlWbl

'Some people think hearing an owl call at night, and in particular Mopoke’s wail, presages a death. More likely, this death is something in your life that has outlived its usefulness. The old energies will be replaced by new ones, so welcome the end – on whatever level; it’s really the birth of something totally different! A new phase in life is augured if you hear Mopoke’s mournful call.' - Native Symbols
