This maybe very basic to some, but I've not heard anything like this at 3am so thought I'd share it for an ID. BirdNET app says it's most likely a Moorhen.

Yes sounds like Moorhen. I've heard resident ones calling for some unknown reason, in the middle of the night.

Thanks for the reply. I'm just starting to try and ID and interoperate bird sounds, Merlin has been quite helpful too.
