The Fuegian Steamer Duck has 2 field recordings on Birbs covering 2 kinds of sound: its duet and alarm call.
Duet 1 recording

About these recordings
The audio comes from the xeno-canto community archive, where field recordists share their recordings under Creative Commons licences. Each player shows who recorded the clip and the licence it is shared under, and links through to the recording's own page. Recording quality and background noise vary — these are wild birds recorded in the field, not studio audio.
